I said I was tired of summer and wanted fall. What I failed to do was say I wanted EARLY fall, and not the fall that hits right before winter.
Yesterday was officially the first day of fall 2026.
Fall doesn’t end until 12/21/26… and today feels like we jumped ahead at least a couple months. BRRR!
The trees are still pretty and green and we’ve not even gotten close to our first frost yet, but the corn is signaling that’s not going to be far off.
Now you know: Cooling fall weather triggers biological changes in certain birds and squirrels. They experience growth in their brain’s hippocampus (memory center) by up to 30% to help them remember where they buried food.
