This morning, as I carried my shoes and iPod outside to get ready for my run, I was met by something I haven't felt in quite a while: crisp air. It was only 65 degrees, and the humidity was relatively low.

It made for a nice run, but more importantly put one thought in my head: fall is coming.

I start nursing school in 2 days. Starting a  new fall semester is always exciting--fall semesters, in my experience, are better than spring semesters. Fall semesters have the better holidays, for one, not to mention the better weather. Fall semester...well, it brings FALL.

Great photos! I'm ready for fall. And you're going to do great at nursing school.

As much as I despise the cold and want no part of the snow, the changing of the leaves and all that Fall brings is something I wish we had. The only change in color we get here is when everything dies from a short term drought.

I can remember while growing up our annual trip to see friends in the Carolina's. Our change to enjoy the chilling fireplaces weather, see a few snowflakes, or pending on the time of trip we would see the yellow to orange leaves fill the landscape.

My childhood memories may account for several of the reasons why I wouldn't mind living there.

Enjoy your Fall term and all that the season has to offer.

I love fall. It means Halloween, a holiday I am obsessed with. And all day marathons of horror flicks. I hope you have a great start to your school year--we need all the nurses we can get!

I CANNOT wait for fall. My fave season by far! These pictures make me so happy!

Yes, yes I LOVE Fall. It is my favorite season hands down. Also, I think Spring semesters just suck in general. You're ready for summer break and professors load you with work at the end of semester that they didn't have time to assign in January. Blegh.

Yes yes yes! Fall fall fall!

Cool pics! Best of luck at nursing school! Personally, I'm not going back to school this fall (for the first time in ... forever!) so it will be an interesting fall!

These pictures are beautiful yet oddly depressing.

I prefer running in cool crisp weather. :D

Good luck back at nursing school!

Love these images! Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I've noticed the change in the air, too. It always feels like new beginnings to me. Must be back to school memories or something.

Glad you are having fun back at school! ;)
