  3. Lovely collage Vee; the harvest season is one of bounty and beauty. I always come back from my early morning walk with the dog, grab a coffee and read the posts of fellow bloggers on my iPad. It's a relaxing half hour or so before I get going and I always enjoy what you have to share.

  10. I'm enjoying my taste of fall over here...on your blog. Beautiful mosaic! Though it is officially autumn...it still feels quite summery in this part of the country. The leaves are just beginning to turn.

  13. I love your collage of autumn; it brought back memories. Our daughter Kelly loved to make collages and I have several of her beautiful works of art framed. Autumn was also her favorite and she asked for pumpkin pie every year for her birthday in October. Thank you for the glimpse into your fall days, XOXO

  15. Lots of great reasons here, Vee. I saw the title of your post in my reader but before I read it, I stopped, grabbed a sheet of paper, and wrote down my own list so as not to be too influenced by yours. Some items are the same, of course. :)

    The mosaic is such a great idea! I'll be linking up to that same party next week. Have a great day enjoying early fall.

  31. This is a gorgeous mosaic, Vee, and I 'm glad I'm using my husband's I Pad this morning to view it as I can enlarge it easily on this device.

    We saw lots of autumn color in Colorado, but the leaves haven't begun to turn here as yet. Our area doesn't change until late October or early November ..when everyone is already decorating for Christmas....lol!
