Summer's End

Summer is coming to an end and there are certain sights and smells that I love about this time of the year.

❤  Curtains blowing in the wind.

❤  The scent of fermenting berries on the vine.

❤  The first leaves starting to change.

❤  The sun is coming up later and going down earlier. 

❤  The flowers are still beautiful but the petals are falling off the bloom.

❤  Jar after jar of hard work in jewel tones.

❤  The buzzing of locusts in the air.

❤  Crickets chirping.

❤  Cool mornings and hazy, hot afternoons.

❤  The sweet taste of corn on the cob.

❤  Fresh baked pie.

So often I complain about the fact that winter is coming, but there truly is so much about summer's end that brings me joy!  And it's followed by my favorite season - autumn!
