FALL CAMPING IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS
Camping during the fall months
is perhaps my favorite time during the year to camp. Cooler
days allow for more activity in the campgrounds and crackling campfires
are welcomed.
The vacationing thong from summer's crest has thinned
to form a private web of seclusion. It's just me, Mother Nature
and those fondly-annoying jug-jugs.
Just
a few sights to look for while camping during those brisk days of
autumn include:
Smaller critters storing winter
food, downy birds migrating to warmer climates, breathtaking fall
foliage in shades of burnt orange, crimson reds, desert browns,
kelly greens and soft violets. You'll even spy wildflowers in bloom.
Yes, many wildflowers bloom throughout the year - they're
not only for Spring and Summer.
Wildlife also takes on thicker
coats in preparation of the cold winter days ahead, and the song
of the cicada begins to fade along with the hum of the mosquito
and the croak of the frog.
