In life, we plant, cultivate and harvest, regardless of our position, and we take time now to show appreciation for all we have. Cool days invite warm sweaters and, hopefully, raincoats if we get our fill of life-affirming rain that refreshes our air, replenishes our reservoirs and lifts our spirits. “Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” —Albert Camus welcome back
