Oh yes! So refreshing after HOT NC summers. I love the colors and mums and pumpkins in the stores too. My furnace is broken too. We heat with kerosene and space heaters, but I sure would love to be able to have central heat again. It's been several years for us. But we need to replace the HVAC system, not just repair it (it is beyond repair) and that is just not in the budget for us. Oh well. It certainly could be worse. The cooler weather always makes me think of others who have no where to go when it's cold and rainy. I would love to make a quilt to help someone less fortunate. Fall also brings food drives to help those in need and I like to participate in those too. Fall also brings our State Fair and my daughter's birthday and best of all---at the end---CHRISTMAS! I love it!
