Journal #18

The perfect autumn day is when it is the right temperature and not too cold. It feels like sixty degrees outside and all of the trees have lost their leaves. It smells like the air is crisp as long as nobody is burning leaves. The perfect day has a temperature when you can still go outside without having to try to hard to keep warm. The best days in autumn are on the weekend and they are usually Sundays, but the best day is probably Thanksgiving. There is a lot of food and it sort of embodies the whole essence of autumn. Everybody gets together and it is exciting to finally see all of the food on the table. It smells delicious like a combination of all the food on the table. For some reason people eat Thanksgiving in like the middle of the afternoon, but I guess that is just part of the holiday. The rest of the day is everybody winding down from the meal and just talking. My whole family always has their own stories, and it is always a good day on Thanksgiving. As the day starts to die down, and day turns to night, everybody usually goes to bed early. But the best average day in autumn is on Sundays. It is always nice out and everybody stays inside and watches football. The game is exciting and the whole family watches. AS long as the Bears are playing, and winning, it is a good day. Fall is really just a time to sit around and do nothing especially on the weekend. I think the best thing about this time is that you get to do nothing, so the best day in Autumn would the day that is fit for doing nothing. The only other thing that goes along with doing nothing in autumn is Thanksgiving, but there is really nothing to do except at this time. Autumn is really a season of relaxing.
