October Sunset Warms Peters Sky

Temperatures like this in October? I'll take it. 

Autumn, in my opinion, is quite possibly the best time of year:

Pumpkin patches; jacket weather; apple cider; salted caramel; leaves changing; football; crisp, sunny days; Halloween; scarves; fall festivals; a reason to redecorate and organize; desire to be uber-productive; baking; season premieres on TV; annual magazine debuts of "The Fashion Issue;" a visit to my alma mater, Miami University, for homecoming; and of course, the start of the holiday season.

What are your favorite things about fall? Do you and your family take trips to or ? Do you tailgate for Steelers games? Do you revisit your college campus? Do you begin to bake?
