September is Fall in Minnesota

The days are getting shorter by minutes a day and the shadows are longer in the woods.
There are fewer and fewer boats on the lake.
An occasional oak tree is showing its fall colors.
We are thinking that eating on the deck may be a pleasure over for this season.
The summer clouds have been replaced by the blue skies and calm days of Fall.
Monarch Butterflies are taking a rest before their long trip to Mexico.
And an occasional female Hummingbird is the only one left at the feeder.
The Fuchsia plant is finally displaying its glory only days before the predicted first freeze...
While a single Maple beat all the rest in showing off this fall.
Sadly, September sunrises will soon give way to the colder days to come. We've had a wonderful summer with loved ones and God's beautiful creation!
