THE BEAUTY OF FALL

Well, I am still in Pennsylvania. Hurricane Sandy has been one heck of a storm. Each time I watch the news, I cannot believe the damage it has done. All of the people affected are in my prayers! It looks like I won't be making it back to the city until the weekend, and I am hoping that my apartment is still intact. At least here I have electricity and internet. I am also not complaining that I get to see Zachary every day. It's definitely been an interesting week so far, being away from my apartment and the office for more than just a few days. 

These photos were taken in the very small town of Warren. Although it's been quite rainy and cold here, I have loved seeing the beauty of fall. My plan for the weekend: convince Zach to take me camping! It won't take much convincing though, since it's his favorite thing to do.

TAKING ME BACK

Here's a look at how I spent my Friday afternoon in Pennsylvania. Zachary surprised me with a visit to the park where we had our first date/camping trip. See my old post here. I loved being back there and seeing it in the fall! It was perfect day for an oversized sweater and jeans. I've thoroughly enjoyed being away from the city and back in nature again. 

P.S. - It is Monday, and I am still here in PA because of this hurricane craziness! I chose not to take my bus back to the city last night since they were shutting down all the transportation in NYC. And, I am pretty glad I didn't. Thank goodness for Zach's laptop, being able to work from here, and that I brought pumpkin spice Baltimore Coffee with me! 

Praying that everyone stays safe and this hurricane isn't as bad as they are saying it will be!

THIS YEAR'S PUMPKIN

Look what I did this past weekend! Zachary was kind enough to buy me a pumpkin, considering it's all I've been talking about since fall began. We spent our Sunday carving it out, drilling some polka dots in it, and adding a little bit of a gold touch (the glitter was my idea, not Zachary's). My pumpkin is now adding a little taste of autumn to my room, and I am loving it! I sat it next to some flowers I've had for awhile now, which I am trying my best to keep alive. It was a perfect October Sunday. I am so excited for everything about fall!

P.S. - I had more photos, but they were lost due to another memory card getting corrupted. Don't worry though because I went to RadioShack today to stop this from happening! 

HELLO, BEST TIME OF THE YEAR

This post is a little overdue, since the first day of fall was the 22nd of September. But I still couldn't help sharing a little bit of my favorite season that is just now beginning. Fall brings so many good things. Good coffee (pumpkin spice is currently at the office), pumpkin spice candles, and well.. everything pumpkin! It's also time to break out the sweaters and boots. Such an exciting season. I love watching the leaves change, and I am even more excited to experience fall in New York City! One thing I do know is that I will have to find a pumpkin patch somewhere.. And I don't think I will be finding one in the city.
