I appreciate fall. It is my number one season, summer is still trying to hang on however I see that the afternoons are starting to get both shorter and cooler. I long for the afternoons when I can turn off my air conditioning system and, maybe, even turn on my heater. I live in the South, so my pal and I don’t get a real winter, however it can get a bit cold at times… My Grandma lives in the North. I remember, as a kid, going up to visit her almost every Thanksgiving. She has this immense old fireplace that was constantly on and heating the house during the fall and winter. The odor of wood burning will constantly remind me of the holidays. I just wish it got cold enough in the South to justify getting a real fireplace. And, not only getting the fireplace however using it too. I have one of those fake, plastic fireplaces. It is entirely just a space heater with lights that sort of look like flames. My house doesn’t even get cold enough for central heating. It has been a lot of years since I have gone up to Grandma’s house for Thanksgiving. Since my pal and I have grown up, my pal and I haven’t taken any family trips up North for a long time… Despite what the rest of the family does, I think I will visit Grandma this fall or winter; Grandma will be thrilled because she gets to see me. I will be thrilled because I get to rest in front of her fireplace. Of course, I want to visit Grandma too.
