I believe you have two MizBs who comment here. I am the one who was in Kansas. Hope that clarifies. <br /><br />In Kansas I had to learn to shift my eyes to all the grasses and brush in order to find fall colors as the few trees KS has tend to basically go brown, with an occasional splash of yellow. But the grasses and sumac and other brush go all sorts of reds and oranges and gold.<br /><br />Florida basically stays green. Tons of live oaks draped with Spanish moss are the main trees in my area, along with palms, magnolias and crepe myrtle. Definitely not the locale for a Fall junkie. :) MizBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-46780925038466531642010-10-05T16:07:31.044-04:002010-10-05T16:07:31.044-04:00Lisa, I'm tickled you remembered!

She is so great.<br /><br />Sharon, she's such a wonderful writer and singer.<br /><br />Rebecca, I love all the things she lists, and my favorite line is 'Irish Setter red.' I hardly ever see Irish Setters anymore. Why is that? Maybe I should get one!<br /><br />Linda, no, not at all. She isn't 'commercial' in that you won't hear her on the radio unless it is a rare independent station. <br /><br />Sherri, yes, isn't it beautiful. <br /><br />Sallie, why don't we wear shawls more?! So practical.<br /><br />Kittie, I hope you do! Maybe an east coast move would be just the ticket for you!<br /><br />Ernestine, just beginning there and here, the colors are fading. <br /><br />Miz B, thank you so much for your kind words. How DID you end up there?? Did you write about it, and I missed it? I love the story about you and your mum. I feel that nostalgia listening to the song, and I live here, for heaven's sake. :<) <br /><br />Hip Chick, I knew you'd love this song!<br /><br />Dee, here, too.

I don't comment often, but read daily and am nurtured by so many of your posts. My parents are both natives of Connecticut, and though I never had the opportunity to live in New England, I am New England to the bone. October was my mother's favorite month and we had a tradition of reading the poem October's Bright Blue Weather by Helen Hunt Jackson every year on Oct. 1. Cheryl's song brings the same sense of melancholic longing to me. Thank you for sharing it, once again. Longing for some New England Fall snap down here in Florida (how did I land here!?!)

I will take a road trip through the NE-taste fresh warm apple cider, watch them tap trees for syrup, stay at a B&B. <br /><br />This is my very favorite time of year. It's nice that others share my love for it as well.<br /><br />Thank you for all your posts. I know that it's tough to fit in time to blog but I'm glad you haven't retired yours just yet. :)Kittie Flynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07637064903334440486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-26143054945567688152010-10-04T22:12:41.302-04:002010-10-04T22:12:41.302-04:00Nan, that was so fun to hear -- new to me and so a...Nan, that was so fun to hear -- new to me and so appropriate as we are now in Vermont and what could be more New Englandy! thanks for rerunning it (a first time showing for me as a fairly new reader).<br /><br />Hugs -- thanks.
