Autumn comes swiftly to Newfoundland; there is no gentle easing from summer to fall -- it's more like wading in the water and suddenly coming to a ledge where you fall into the depths. It's cold out there! All those dressy capris I'd been saving to wear for work only got about a week's use as then it was just too cold to go bare legged!
What I miss most about wearing a summer wardrobe is sandals: my feet rebel dramatically about wearing shoes. Poor tootsies! But now I get to wear my red Converse, my silver, sparkly Ugg sneakers and my lovely fall boots. And it is ever so nice to put on my warm fleece hoodies and soft leggings and walk in the cold, crisp air. I'm ready for this change of seasons.
The leaves have only begun to change color here. And I'm hoping to get in at least one more big hike before the snow flies. In the meantime, I'm enjoying this season where life slows, food is richer and TV viewing picks up again.
Ciao! It's time for a chai latte!

We've had some very cool days here and I too have been changing out the closets with warmer clothing, but next week we're to be warmer. It's a time when layers are needed. Looks like I'll be shedding a layer or two with the return of warmer weather. But I'm prepared and like you love a good cup of Chai Latte ! Happy Autumn!
It is really cool in Quebec as well....I have been wearing a Fall coat in the mornings. I was so warm and overnight so chilly!
