Fall is Here!

Fall isn't just in the air, it is here!  I love this time of year, as the tree leaves change color and the evenings get cooler.  There are some trees down the road from our house, that turn the most gorgeous shades of red, orange, and yellow, each year.  They only turn colors for a few days and then are done and barren.  But during those few days, they almost glow.  The inside leaves seem to go to yellow and orange shades, while the outer leaves go to dark orange and various shades of red.  Every year I swear I am going to go get photos of these trees, but get busy and forget.  *sigh*  Alas, another year has gone by and I've missed an opportunity to photograph these beautiful trees.

My dogs are in heaven now that the fall season is upon us.  Kuma, being a woolly, is happiest when the weather is COLD!   Bella enjoys the cooler days, but does like to come inside at night.  After all, she is the princess you know.

    
Who doesn't like to play in the piles of leaves?!?!

There isn't anything quite like a warm blanket to snuggle with on a cold fall night!

I know that some of my friends who mush are getting very excited.  The cooler temperatures bring more days where they can get in some serious workouts.  Temps in the low 30's and below are desired for mushing workouts that can go a loooooong ways!  And the dogs love it!!  These are Alaskan Malamutes you know.  The colder it is, the happier they are.  Give them a job to do and they are in seventh heaven.  Remember, a tired Malamute is a good Malamute!
