Fall in its Images

October 14, 2021 By Cara Putman

It’s taken awhile, but it’s finally beginning to feel like fall in Indiana. I love the transition from the heat of summer into the crisp air and chilled temperatures. There’s something satisfying about sliding in the third of four seasons.

In the last two weeks, I’ve had two novellas release. Dangerous Pursuits released on the 12th, and is a collection of 15 novellas by a host of top romantic suspense authors. The collection is 99¢ through the end of this week, then it launches to $9.99. If you’ve been eyeing it, now is the time to buy. You can click on the image or link to go to my website with its links to different sellers.

One of the things I love about fall is the colors that appear in the fields around us. There’s something about the sunshiny yellow of these daisy like flowers that just make me smile.

The trees are starting to change too…My absolute favorite part of fall. The explosion of colors lets me know that the trees are preparing for winter and that we get one last color show.

This last photo is a small reminder of beauty that popped up in the cracks of our patio. We have an explosion of flowers in containers around our patio, but this little bloom decided to jump ship and take root in the narrowest of cracks. It’s a reminder that God can bring beauty in the most unlikely places. I smile every time I look at it.

What’s your favorite part of fall?

    One of my favorite parts of fall is that first time I can throw on a hoodie. Haha!

    I love the rusty-orange tamaracks down in our valley here in Northern Alberta, Canada. Like you, Cara, I love the chilled air, too–it get’s that way far earlier here than down in Indiana! we’ve had it for about a month or better already 🙂 I love the sunflowers. I love harvest time–bringing in the garden root veggies, and thanking Yahweh for His rich bounty and mercy toward His children. Hallelujah.

    I just purchased Dangerous Pursuits and am excited to dig in! (Thanks for the reminder.)

    My favorite thing about fall is the cooler temperatures that encourage sweatshirts, hot tea/chocolate, and cuddling up with a good book. I also enjoy the beautiful colors outside that God created for us to enjoy!
