autumn chill

early morning was again frosty and cold, with ice on the windshield and snow(!) pellets on the roof. all through the day i watched from windows as flakes drifted from the sky and clouds careened overhead. but at leaving time, the sky had cleared, the sun shone brightly, and the air was biting cold with the feel of winter. back home, i put on a sweater and heated some cider to warm me. it was that kind of day...

My favorite thing to do too on a chilly day.

The first chill is always fun, to enjoy warm drinks and favorite sweaters leading up to the holidays. After New Year's though I'm ready for Spring.

I watched the artist in action on this one, and you captured it! I can smell the air in your photo.

It's still warm (and dangerously dry) where I am. Thanks for sharing your autumn chill with me. :)

Hinting at chills here in Oklahoma, but so far we haven't had an actual cold day. I've put on a sweater a few times just to hint to the season when I want. Hopefully it will listen soon.

It's not quite that cold yet in the Netherlands, but almost. I can understand your desire for a thick sweater and hot cider. I have hot chocolate instead. It heats my insides up. Isn't it cozy?
