What does Autumn mean to you?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for September 23, 2008:
The memories I have of Autumn are full of vibrant colors, and laughter. In my childhood this time of year was the time to decorate and visit haunted houses and get free candy. Autumn marked the ending of the summer, which was sad, but also the beginning of the holiday season, with so much to look forward to.
Now, Autumn leaves and their beauty and the smell of Autumn in the air always makes me nostalgic and a little sad. All that it marks now is the beginning of the bitter cold, which is scary now, unlike it seemed as a child. Back then, the snow was beautiful and full of wonders and fun.
But back then, I always knew I had somewhere warm and safe to go back to.
