The fall air is slowly setting in, making us thankful for cooler temperatures and reminding us that yet another year is flying by. And as we get into the swing of the school year, freshmen are finding their routines while seniors are faced with the reality of graduation.

BOWERS

This is my favorite time of year, not just because of the fashion or football, but because fall seems to bring everyone a little closer. The spirit of fall is unlike any other season, especially in Athens.

Driving down Milledge Avenue on a Friday evening and seeing everyone enjoying the sunset and cool breeze. Clutching a warm cup of coffee on the way to an early morning class. Shooting the breeze in good company with a cold beer in hand. Doesn’t get any better.

There’s nothing I love more than seeing a blue sky, then stepping outside wearing a cardigan to keep warm. Fall provides a sense of nostalgia while still bringing about the feeling of urgency to plan out your next life move.

So while we revel in the goodness of this wonderful time of year, look forward to the good times together.

See you next month.

Cheers,
