Fall Follow Up

October went out with a bang!  I enjoyed the fall weather, cheered for my new city, and celebrated Halloween.  Here are a few of the updates:

 Fall foliage finally peaked in Boston...

 Beacon Hill did it up for Halloween.  And I won $200 in the Minted contest for my fall inspiration board posted right here on this blog.

 And oh yea, the Red Sox won the World Series!  People celebrated with cupcakes and statue sized costumes. 

An Autumn Walk in Cambridge

The mornings are getting chillier and the days are getting shorter.  I think how you feel about fall says a lot about you.  Do you see it only as a sign of impending winter, or do you enjoy it for its colorful foliage and pumpkin spiced everything? 

I'm not always great at living in the moment, but the other day on my walk home from work I couldn't help but simply marvel at what a beautiful fall evening it was.  I stopped and took in the fading light, the golden topped trees, and a full rainbow. 

I hope you have a moment to enjoy fall, and that it's that much sweeter knowing there's nothing we can do to stop winter from coming. 

Wednesday - Remembering Fall at Rowe

Now the leaves have mostly fallen to the ground, but a few weeks back that wasn't the case.  In October, I went to a conference for work.  I spent three days in the woods learning about fundraising and eating (mostly) no meat.  At first, I was scared (no meat?!?), but Rowe turned out to be this wonderful place full of hippies and happy people where I felt that little piece of me that actually does like nature re-awaken.  So now that we're transitioning from fall into winter, and moving full speed ahead into the holidays, I thought I'd just look back at the beautiful scenery and changing leaves; it seemed like the perfect way to welcome the Thanksgiving holiday!
