That thought came across me this morning. I left for work an hour earlier than I usually do, and was delighted by the cool, almost fall-like air. The crickets were still chirping, and I could hear crows in the distance. That's one thing I miss about living in a suburban area (not that where I live isn't suburban... it's more suburban than city, but I haven't heard a crow in YEARS.) I wonder if you can buy crows to import to your town? I google'd it, but the only thing I found was the American Society of Crows and Ravens. I couldn't find an answer in the FAQ section.

As much as I love being inside and being crafty, I think this is a good sign that fall will be the season that I spend outdoors. I want to spend more time in nature and just listen to what the world has to say.
