Welcoming the Arrival of Fall
This morning the pond shimmers as the sun creeps eastward over the Wasatch Range catching just a hint of frost on the tips of the grass – can’t you smell the leaves giving up their green to summer’s end? I caught my first fish yesterday – a shiny, fat brown trout with bright red gills and dainty cerise spots hugging its sides. I have officially progressed from caster to fisher – of course, releasing him to play with me another day. I sip my coffee sitting beside a fragrant fire, the first since May. Oh, this time of year is all about fires and hot baths, crunchy foliage wet underneath with chilling rain, scarlet hillsides and flickering amber aspens, yummy fleece that hugs without constraint. Wish you all were here.
Best wishes, Margo
