Awesome Autumn!
I try not to use the word "awesome" as much as is popular these days. A friend of mine is always saying, "that was awesome." It was actually just a joke I had told; okay it was a very good joke, but nothing more. I know that our use of language is always changing, so I try to remember not to get too "uptight" about the things I see or hear. "Awesome" is one of the few words left, however which I know, that describes things which can make me feel reverence, fear, inspiration, wonder, astonishment, or admiration. Awesome things can take me aback, or leave me thunderstruck.
Thus I try to leave the word "awesome" for very special occasions. (I don't usually say "thus" either, but saying "awesome" makes me feel biblical.) Also I know that many people feel as I do, in that the "fall" of the year is the best time of year. After all it's harvest time. It's my favorite time. So let me say, "plentiful harvest to all, and to all, have an awesome autumn!"

I am glad that I inspire you. I usually try to make the best out of any weather condition. But, the fall is my favorite time of the year to hike.

Scott, how far do you hike? Do you do the camping thing?

I use to go to the state parks in Ohio and Kentucky, there I would hike five or ten miles, just depended on who went with me. If I hike in the forest behind my house, the trail stretches for ten miles. I haven't been camping since 2000.

Scott, how I envy you having the woods behind your house. That is too cool. See you around, buddy.
