Welcome to Wednesday Writing Essentials. Today is September 24th.


 http://media-files.gather.com/images/d266/d207/d745/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg



If you can tear yourself away from current events in the US long enough to focus on the beauty of autumn, please stop by and tell us about your lovely Indian Summer, Fall, Autumn.

The actual equinox was on Monday. But in New England, the days and nights do not become equal until today. So they said on the Weather. Anyway.

Here are a few photos to get you thinking about the wonderful season of Fall, Thanksgiving, and Winter Holidays (Christmas, New Year's and many more) coming up in the next three and odd months.

Here is my essay on Autumn - it is a photo essay

I so wish we had the change of seasons in Florida. I grew up in WV so Autumn scenery was abundant. I am also ready for the cooler weather that usually hit here around Halloween.

I miss Stamford...

Trees are still green around here.

The excitement of Autumn is here in California. I'll be driving out of town again in a couple of days and am hoping to capture some good photos at my sisters get together in Sisters, Oregon.

Instead of republishing...I'll just post this link to a favorite Autumn poem from 2007~

Lovely colors. Our trees are very slow to change this year, but we are coastal and sometimes it takes a while.
Linda T. Sep 24, 2008, 3:43am EDT
I love the colors of Autumn but do not like the colder weather. Good Wednesday topic I will have to give it some thought.
Kathryn E. Sep 24, 2008, 6:24am EDT

Happy Autumn!

I to wish I could see the season change. But I live in Florida...haven't you heard the only seasons we see are the rainy and dry seasons?

I grew up in Ohio. So, I truely miss the changing of the seasons. I am looking forward to seeing more from my Gather friends.

Autumn is my favorite. The air is crisp, the leaves are changing, its just a great time of the year.
Cheryl R. Sep 24, 2008, 11:07am EDT
At least the colors of Autumn are things we can enjoy without cost.

Those trees are really pretty. I will definately take some time to look at the beautiful trees, as they change.
