I love Minnesota in the fall. Leaves turn colors there, unlike Texas, where the choices are green or brown. Heck, it is still over 90F. How can I even be thinking about Fall? Well, I can because I just saw the blog post over at the Clay Coyote Gallery telling me it is that time of year, time for the Fall Open House. (Unfortunately, I am not going to get to go this year -- so won't you go for me?)
Ah, fall. I really miss the other seasons. Ian and I got in to this discussion recently (pre-coffee on the way in to work - so don't hold me accountable for accuracy). Anyways, he is a summer man, I am a four seasons kind of girl - makes you appreciate the rest of them. And my argument is you can always put more cloths on and stoke a fire. There comes a point in the Texas heat where you are just naked and there is nothing you can do about it because even the pools and lakes are 85F. My logic is sound.

Austin Girl, your conversation sounds like one I've had over and over! I do think your logic is sound - you can add layers but there's a limit as to what you can subtract.
We may not have many changing leaves here, and it's still in the nineties, but I have some pretty cool fall flowers growing that would croak in Minnesota, or back in my home state of Illinois.

Speaking of pottery, did you ever go to the Empty Bowl Project on the Sunday before Thanksgiving?

We are going to miss you guys at the open house this fall, people ask about our door greeter, Sarge. And you, of course!
Speaking of seasons, it is peak season up here in Bayfield WI this weekend. As I write this I'm looking out over Lake Superior with reds, golds and oranges in all the trees. Absolutely beautiful!
