Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I wanted to chat a little bit about the wonderful seasons that we have in some parts of the world!

Autumn is My Favorite

I'm switching the Wednesday Walk a little bit, and it's going to encompass a few different spots that we visited!

Don't get me wrong, I love a good bit of summer weather, where temps are nice and toasty and you go outside to the beach or something and soak in the sun, waves and the energy of the crowds of people around. That for me though is something that has a lifespan and I guess it comes from living in an area my whole life where we get the changes of seasons, having 4 different seasons instead of 2 or 3 seasons, or 1 long season.

That's the beauty of life and the world that we live in! There is all kinds of variety and things for different kinds of people. For me personally, Autumn is one of my favorite times of year. The cool crisp air, the vast amounts of festivals and places to go for people to sample some of the delicious foods and things that people have worked so hard during the summer months to put together. It's a smorgasbord of wonderful shit, all crammed into a few weeks! My wife snapped a picture of the little man and I trying to get our fishing on, with the beautiful autumn colors as the backdrop!

Fall in the New England area of the United States is one that I know many people in the world would love to see and I know that I didn't really appreciate or take advantage of the completely breathtaking and beautiful place that I'm living in until a few different things happened. One of them was the birth of my son and the other one is the ability to interact with and talk to people from around the world who have never been to a place like this, and love the beauty of it.

I've certainly become much more aware of the special ability to recognize where I grew up as a wonderful place, so I apologize for being a little nostalgic haha. The mountains here, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, are a special spot indeed. We always go up here, as do many thousands of other people from the area and throughout the world, to experience the full bliss of the fall colors. You have to be careful though, because sometimes you can miss it if you go too late!

The colors of all of the various plant life changing from summer growth to autumnal decay and eventual death is a wonderful transition. The cycle of life for sure! I know that in the days we live in right now, we tend to fear death and the things that surround it. What we have to recognize though is that death is just part of the cycle of life. Without life we cannot have death and without death we cannot have life. It's quite the important concept!

Seeing the trees and plants letting go of their summer glow and transitioning over to their autumn coat is pretty damn cool, the vibrant yellows, oranges, reds and other various shades on that end of the color spectrum are amazing to see. What's interesting is the focus on the yellows for a lot of these things. I wonder why that is, and maybe I will do a little research on it to see why that is the case.

I love seeing the giant maple trees in all their splendor. The bright yellows like this are one of my favorites! I have a soft spot for the reds and oranges that's for sure because they aren't as common but the really bright yellows are something else! A lot of the trees have a subdued yellow but if you catch a maple in it's glory like this one, you will be treated with one heck of a show with the glowing yellow that it offers onlookers!

This spot here is at one of the major lakes in the New England area, Lake Winnipesaukee. I haven't been there much but I know that we will make it a point to stop by a bit every autumn to check out the gorgeous colors!

Some fall photography wouldn't be complete of the New England area without the quintessential tractor though! I think having tractors on the farms that we visit is one of the coolest things to see, especially when you can juxtapose it on a foreground of beautiful leaves changing colors like this here. This farm is a really nice one that we stumbled upon several years ago and now we are regular visitors of the spot, for various reasons but we always go here in the fall to spend a few hours to sit down, enjoy the scenery and watch the kids and my son play with the animals and various things around.

It's not quite autumn yet, we still have a few more weeks of summer to go but I was looking through some old pictures and knew that I wanted to share some memories from recent years in the autumnal beauty!
