Fall is a season of transformation, a breathtaking reminder of nature’s rhythm and impermanence. The changing colors—vivid reds, fiery oranges, and golden yellows—paint the landscape in a final burst of brilliance before winter’s stillness. Leaf peeping becomes a cherished tradition, drawing people outdoors to witness this fleeting spectacle, a reminder to appreciate beauty in the present moment. The crisp air, the scent of earth and fallen leaves, and the golden glow of late afternoon light create a sense of nostalgia and reflection. Just as the trees shed their leaves, fall encourages us to let go, embrace change, and prepare for new beginnings.

am deeply grateful to Sylvia and her family for their warm accommodation. Experiencing this place in the fall is nothing short of magical—a true paradise. Walking through the backyard and wandering around the neighborhood, I am reminded of how fortunate we are to live in a world so full of vibrant colors and natural beauty. The crisp air, the golden hues of the leaves, and the gentle rustling of trees create a moment of reflection and appreciation. Autumn is a season that invites gratitude, and being here allows me to fully embrace the wonder that surrounds us.
