It was for just a week or two every year when the foliage was like this. Fall was definitely the shortest season. Blink and everything is brown, muddy, cold, shitty. Fall used to be back-to-school and Riverside softball and pennant races and the first hopeful weeks of football before it all fell apart. Fall was street fairs and block parties and Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating. How awesome was trick-or-treating?
