There's something very festive about the fall season. It's very relaxing, with the weather cooling down and all the colorful leaves on the ground. Plus they signal the approaching Final Big Three of the year: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
I like to imagine myself living in New England and walking down a neighborhood some time around Halloween season wearing a sweater, taking in the cool temperatures and picturesque scenes of autumn leaves in trees and on the sidewalks, and looking at pumpkins sitting out in people's front yards, and seeing a couple of cats sitting on front porches for good measure.
I live in Texas. I've seen none of that (except the "cats" bit). The temperatures are likely going to stay in the 70s and 80s all month. Yee-haw.
