The Fall Season
     There are four seasons in the year Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall.  The present season is Fall,
which started on September 23rd. During the season of Fall the leaves turn from green to orange, yellow and, red and they fall to the ground.  The weather gets cooler, and the sun goes down earlier and earlier each night.  It is a fun time to pick pumpkins, make pies, cookies, and rake leaves with family and friends.
There is a fun holiday in October and it is called, Halloween.  Children get dressed in costumes and go trick or treating to neighbors for candy.
