Is anyone else detecting that end of summer feeling? It's silly really because when I was at school the summer was just starting being that we were breaking up for the holidays. Now, I find that the countryside is looking a bit tired and I can detect a feel that it will be over too soon.

A great variety of climates here Rowan.
Alpine to rain forest to arid desert and everything in between.

Well its still very warm here in the S.E. the hot summer has just gone on and on, and this morning on the radio they said its expected to last at least another month, so no its nowhere near Autumn yet.

Fall, shortened from the phrase fall of the leaf, was common in England in the 17th century.

No 237 I'm not getting the 'end of summer feeling', but I wish I was !!! Sick to death now of over hot days when I start sweating minutes after walking out the door and not being able to sleep at night and grass everywhere turning to straw and young trees dying for lack of water - roll on autumn !

^ I`m hoping it goes on for a little while longer but it won't be long before there is dew on the grass, long shadows and large brown spiders in the garden. I wouldn't mind suffering winter if we had summers like this one every year. Alas, it's probably not to be.

as Vulcan says, "fall" is a British word, going back to the 1500s; the Americans took it with them when they emigrated, then the British switched to autumn. Like aluminum, which used to be the British spelling too.
