Late afternoon shadows seem longer in the fall. It makes sense with the earth actually tilting on its axis. I guess the sunlight really does slant more.

If you are very quiet you can hear the dry leaves falling like a gentle rain.

I've had a couple of jobs that I could reach by walking, or biking. I'll guess that you have been walking to work for 30 years.

My Dad walked to work for 30+ years, and he often came home for lunch and a nap too.

I walk or bike to work.

I don't understand/can't imagine the agony I'd go through if I had to drive to work.

If it was cool, dry and you could smell the leaves, it doubtless was blessed, indeed. My favorite time of year.
