This is the last weekend of summer and I am looking forward to fall.

It has been an unusual summer of course with many activities canceled because of Covid-19. I am hoping that by next summer the ability to travel will have improved so that I can spend part of it in Israel.

The hottest days of the year are drawing to a close. Of this I am glad as we have had some very hot days this year.

It will be good that fire season will be drawing to an end as well. However, it runs well past the start of fall.

Fall will of course bring us falling leaves and changes in color to foliage. The days will shorten and we will have cooler weather.

However, many of the fall activities will still be curtailed by Covid-19.

Of course, fall is also known as autumn and since I shared the summer statue from the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney above I must share the one for autumn.

Are you ready for fall?
