April--I always thought of fall as a season where things began again not spring...probably because of the school year. I too like the cooler temps of fall but we didn't have much of a summer this year in MN.

Lee&Carol--Didn't think everyone would think of this as a fall photo...there is green on the pumpkin and ragweed 'the hayfever-flower of August' in the photo. But...Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of summer so I understand the connection.

Anna--It's too early for the pumpkins to come out for decor around here too...They are still growing and the flowers are still blooming...Around Oct 1st is when we decorate (and clean up all those darn leaves...pretty on the trees but lots of work in the yard!)

Jim--I guess I reminded myself too...unintentionally. My escaping pumpkin photo was timed perfectly for the unoffical end of summer!

Karen--Absolutely....Brave little guy that is escaping out of his protected world inside of the fence. Lots of raccoons, oppossums and rabbits on the outside!

Terry and Bonnie--Yes...I love fall but winter is another story. Ice and snow is not my favorite time of year...kids love to ski though.

Teri,
I've been on the wrong side of the fence more than once, so I understand where this pumpkin is!  LOL!
