October is also the beginning of fall

Yes, our fall season is here. It's finally cool outside. It's the first morning I've worn a sweater to work. Even my coworkers are wearing fall colors and sweaters. It's apparent we're glad the cooler season is here.
On the drive to work I noticed the trees have changed from a lively green to several darker, flat shades of green. It is the season of not only orange, but yellow and purple.
In fact, on October the first our staff decorated the lighted display cases in the main lobby with fall colors...all oranges and yellows. We filled the cases with children's yellow cars and trucks, yellow vases and pitchers, and a big yellow bear. There are also tiny orange pumpkins and a big pumpkin, even an orange New Testament, as well as a lovely basket of sunflowers, plus many more interesting items.
On our round foyer table there's a centerpiece of mums, pumpkins, leaves and berries. Our books are also in color: an orange Whiskey Sour by J. A. Konrath, yellow Lemon Meringue Pie Murder and orange Carrot Cake Murder by Joanne Fluke, and Tangerine by Marilynn Griffith, just to name a few.
In the display bookcase beside the checkout counter we placed yellow and orange books to help you "Fall into Fall reading." You'll see books such as The Grilling Season by Diane Mott Davidson (this is a great grilling season!) and The Promise of Lumby by Gail Fraser.
At our children's table "The Great Pumpkin recommends" lots of good yellow and orange books. Above the table a hairy dark spider looks down at the books through colorful fall leaves.
So, you see, we've decorated the library with all manner of fall stuff. It's really festive-looking, bright and cheery. Even warm and friendly.
Come visit us in all our fall glory. We'd love to see you.
