fall forward



fall is my favorite season. it took me a while to get the feel of them here in sf, the rhythm of the seasons is much more subtle. i felt a bit in limbo for a while without the changing of leaves and temperatures and then snow... but now i can recognize the colder nights, the rainy season, the wearing of boots and closeting of sandals.

with fall comes the holidays, and related festivities... tonight, i'm part of an expedition to a corn maze... a brief flickr search revealed horrormovie-esque shots of corn stalks flash-illuminated against the night sky, and dripping signs proclaiming "field of screams". overhead shots of corn mazes look basically like crop circles. should be a pretty good time.
