184/365 Before and after

On the first full day of fall [insert shock here], I came across this scene, and it looked to me like a before-and-after shot.

On the left? Summer.
On the right? Fall.

Yep, summer is gone. And as if Mother Nature wanted to put that in bold type, underlined, in italics, and in all caps, we've hardly seen the sun all week. It's like the dreariness I associate with November arrived overnight.

Maybe positive thinking is the way to go. I'll try thinking of hot apple cider. Red, orange and yellow leaves. Pumpkin pie. Sweet potatoes. No mosquitoes. Reading a book by a fire.

There, that helped!
