Monday, September 22 is the Autumnal Equinox, the first day of the Autumn season.
Autumn is the name of the season and fall is the term for the time of Autumn when leaves begin to fall from the trees. Let's discuss it.....
1. Are there pumpkins or chrysanthemums on your porch or are you planning on putting some out?
No. Most of us in Canada do not decorate for the seasons. We generally only decorate for the major holidays.
2. Are stores around you showing Autumn clothing and decor now? Here in New Jersey, leaves on some trees are changing slowly and temperatures are way down. What is it like in your neck of the woods?
I haven't been in the stores for a long time other than grocery stores and pharmacies. A few days ago, I noticed that the pharmacy has their Hallowe'en items out on the shelves. It means that clothing stores and other retail shops likely have their autumn items out now. The leaves have only just started to turn colour but not much yet.
3. Do you have plans for Thanksgiving yet?
I have thought about the Thanksgiving meal. We'll probably have chicken with stuffing and all the sides instead of a big turkey.
4 . If we can arrange an autumn trip or get away for you, where will you choose to go and why?
I don't much feel like travelling with all the turmoil in the world. DH has been away in Kenya for some business related matters and to see family. I hope he'll get home before long. He didn't want to be away so long but some things take long. If I did take a journey I would only want to go up country a bit. It's fantastic weather and scenery at this time of year. We call the area the Thompson Okanagan, around Kamloops, Chase, Kelowna. I would also like to go even much farther north to Prince George and beyond into northern British Columbia around Dawson Creek and Alberta around Grande Prairie and Edmonton. Autumn is the best season to see the beauty of the area.
Also if you click here you can see some posts and photos of the area.
