As we welcome autumn, I can't help but reflect on the fact that summer just wasn't herself this year. She's been shy, reluctant, and maybe somewhat confused about whether it was her turn or not. I feel like her and I just haven't spent enough quality time together....
Our grass started turning a few weeks ago, but I've been in denial, citing that it was too much harsh sunlight, which is true - kind of, but in my heart of hearts, I know the real reason the grass is turning, is of course because it is undeniably now AUTUMN.
So as I wistfully look back, wondering why summer seemed so fleeting, it's strange how these photo's of what seemed like a thousand AUTUMNS ago, also a reminder that time is fleeting, popped into my head.....
This season has a charm all of it's own, bright sunny days, and cool crisp evenings.....the best of both worlds I guess:-)

At least with the arrival of autumn with rain should start to subside...March/April was always one of my fav times in SA.
