During the Saskatchewan fall we see the last great burst of golden colors come in. These colors are warm, & the last burst of color you will see from that summers flowers. The wildflower season changes into purple asters, & the yellows of the goldenrod. At the end of August, & beginning of September you, can hear the frantic buzz of the busy working bees as they do their best to gather up the last bits of pollen from the late blooming flowers. As September comes in the trees begin to change. The leaves on the trees lose their green color, & we get to watch the landscape wash with it last natural golden glow for the year as leaves take on their gold color. End of August, & the month of September, is this delicate limbo time for Saskatchewan. We see the fruits of our labor, which nursed the plants we seeded in spring, displayed as our plants come into their final stage for the year. We see it everywhere, from the last picking of our beautiful flowers from flower beds and gardens, to the out across the expansive landscape that harvest season has claimed. Fall is my favorite season, as it makes me reflect on how grateful I am for the spring & summer seasons I am able to experience. It makes me come to face with time, & accepting of endings. It's a season of change, & reflection as we harvest the hard work of the past year. We reflect on what worked, & what didn't. Where Mother Nature was kind, & where she wasn't. Fall is beautiful in it's seasonal mortality. This seasonal mortality reminds this warm day loving, beautiful summer color chaser & sun worshiper that not everything we love may last forever so we must treasure our love while we have it. Cheers to warm, & colorful, fall days
