We finally got to make a trip to Memphis last weekend to start wedding planning, and I couldn’t help but notice as we traveled from place to place that fall has finally arrived.
I should not have been surprised. I mean, it IS November, but since fall took such a long time to show its face in Mississippi, I was delighted by all the golds, reds and browns that greeted us at potential reception and rehearsal dinner sites.
It was truly gorgeous, and I had a good time snapping images of the fall foliage.
I have always been an autumn fan. It probably goes back to me being a fall baby and the fact that I loved playing outside in the fall because it wasn’t too hot or too cold. Dodger, Leigh and I could play outside for hours at a time. And my love of this season has carried into adulthood, even though there is less rolling around in leaves and playing in the backyard these days.
These days, it’s about the weather and the scenery. It doesn’t get any better than this.
What is your favorite season?
LaVieDeRose - When I was a kid, my favorite season was summer. But the summers I was familiar with were Delaware and Massachusetts summers.
After we moved to Mississippi, my favorite season changed to fall. 😛
Jessica - What a gorgeous picture! I love the fall colors, especially when the sun is shining. Love the whole thing.
AMinDinMoTown - Autumn has and will always be my favorite. The air is crisp, cool, yet perfect. The colors make everything so beautiful. How can anyone not fall in love with fall?
Elizabeth - I am such an autumn person which is one of our big motivators for the move. Here, we have summer, then we have bare, dead trees. I am ecstatic about seeing some color next year!
Erin - Too funny! My favorite season has been fall for as long as I can remember. … Must be something to do with the South, huh?
Erin - Thanks so much! I love all the fall colors, too, and it makes me sad to see all the leaves turning brown. The golds and reds are so much prettier.
Erin - Amen to that! The fall is just perfect. Love this weather. And wish it came around sooner in Mississippi.
Erin - Good reasoning! And I cannot wait to see images of all those pretty colors next fall!
