the fall comes

Fall is about the wind more then the leaves...

it is easy to visually sense that fall is coming by the turning or the leaves, seeing them scattered in street gutters as you flow seamlessly down any downtown side street in our city.  But before the colours of fall, the winds come, they blow in that cool air, they bring that wind that says put a jacket on or dust off all those cardigans!

I like the wind, it plays with all your senses, you feel the chill of the cool northern wind, or the garbage from the street hitting your legs.  It takes your nose by storm, new smells old smells, poo smells, all quickly swaying by your nose.  You can hear the wind gusts, all the leaves being rustled with each gust who needs wind chimes on a great fall day.

so you can keep your visual or leaves on the ground, I am opting for the full fall sensory experience, it may be the greatest part of Winnipeg weather, a time calling the fridged winter, while still holding the warm summer memories close.

Fall I am ready and waiting...
