Ready for Fall

Can you tell I'm ready for Fall? It's my favorite season but we don't get to enjoy much of it here. It'll be hot until at least mid-October, then it will get more pleasant around the end of October. We don't get changing leaves though, just falling pine needles. Funny, in Douglasville, we paid for pine straw. Now, we'd probably pay to have someone come and haul ours away!
