Trees

Autumn is hands-down the most beautiful time of year in the midwest. I love the beautiful trees when they change colors, and the grass is still green. Blue sky, red trees, green grass, black cows, brown earth.

However, i am always uneasy at autumn time. It means winter is coming. It is hard to get excited about fall, for this reason. I hate it when the killing frost comes and wipes out the garden. I hate those first frosty mornings when i have to scrape my windshield (eventually Superman will move the jet ski out of the garage and i can have my inside-the-garage parking spot back for the winter).

And my very least favorite part of autumn is "DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME," which is, in my opinion, such a depressing event. Yeh, we get an extra hour of sleep but i hate it getting dark so early in the evening. Having grown up in a non-daylight-saving-time state, i see no reason for it. When i am elected governor, that will be one of the items on my agenda that i will change.

Here are some trees from my neighborhood. I am Kelli Holman, and i approve this message.
