ReplyDeleteI love fall and winter... but fall is so colorful, and we've been getting so much orange and red this year, which I'm so thankful for. Last year, we barely had many colors. It literally seemed like everything changed overnight and went from green to brown last year.
I love Henry David Thoreau! :D
