Autumn is my favourite season. I know, I say every season is my favourite at the time, but I do have reasons to back it up. I love it when the air gets cool in the evening, and is fresh and crisp in the morning. I love the many colours of fall: red, orange, brown (not a yucky dead brown, but the brown of certain leaves before they fall). I love how my little house is no longer 3000 degrees inside. In Edmonton we sometimes get unseasonably cold weather, so all the leaves turn brilliant colours, but then it heats up again, so we get the wonderfully warm weather of summer with the beauty of autumn.
In autumn, also, the sunsets/rises are fantastic! Before moving here, I never knew the sky could be so many different colours. On the sun side, it's rosy, yellow, pink, and a little blue, and in the other direction it's the deepest black studded with bright stars. In the middle, the black fades to a deep blue, then a lighter blue, then a little dusky rose and yellow come in, and so on. Don't trust my description, this is something you have to see for yourself. It's breathtaking. If you've never been to the prairies before, I suggest you make the trip, just the sunsets and rises alone are worth it!

Where do you have such a fantastic view of the sky? Certainly not your house?
