lbert Camus said 'Autumn is a second spring when
every leaf is a flower'. I think that is true. Fall has
a way of showing us the beauty of transformation,
of allowing us to view changes as not good or bad,
just different. The way that a snow fall is beautiful without
thinking of icy road conditions, the way that a sunny day is
inviting without thinking of sunscreen and sunburns, the way
that spring showers can be refreshing instead of a muddy
mess. Fall too has a way of welcoming us with warm cozy sweaters, hot
beverages in hand and a color palette of rich purples, vibrant oranges and
deep reds, offerings for us to observe and appreciate.
In this issue of Highlands Maison we explore all the wonder that is fall.
We'll take a look at fall foliage hikes and sights in Western Washington, the
seasonal color explosions of maple trees and mums, and of course infusing
our home decor with those dazzling hues that are representative of the
season. We'll talk tailgate parties, Halloween cookies and day tripp'n to Lake
Cresent. Of course no issue would be complete without a local slant, in this
edition we highlight fun fall decor as seen throughout the Tehaleh 'hood. Be
inspired, beware, be prepared to fall in love with fall.
