Summer has been eventful, but as always too short. I must admit though, as much as I will miss spending Saturday's ocean side with my toes in the sand, I am looking forward to Fall. Simply the smell of it in the air excites me for the mild days when you can leave the house in nothing more than your favorite jeans and a blazer. The refreshing breeze sends an split-second chill, but nothing cold enough to warrant a full on jacket. Just thinking about football season, local brews, apple cider and spending a Saturday picking apples at a local orchard excite me for all that Autumn has to offer. I feel so lucky to live in New England, so close to the ever changing palette that New Hampshire and Vermont have to offer. As the season progresses you can experience colors so vivid, that even the richest of paints couldn't capture their bold, saturated hues. I'm getting excited just thinking about it.
Anyway, before I wish away what's left of summer, I must tell you that my little Zinnia flowers are all grown up and blooming. I snapped a few pictures about a month ago, and they are still producing more blooms. I just can't get over how vibrant their colors are!
And for those of you that think the first sign of Fall is when Starbuck's releases their 'Pumpkin Spice Latte', try again... please.
