Embracing the New Season
Are you ready for the new season? Every season has its style and grace, and autumn is no different. As seasons pass, we must make the most of our days. The weather is cooling down, and the time for swimming in the ocean or at the local pool has passed for 2022.
Sports in Autumn
Sports in Autumn take on a new vibe. Baseball is gearing up for the playoffs in the quest for the World Series, while football progresses through games in pursuit of a Super Bowl appearance. Meanwhile, hockey and basketball kick off exciting new seasons. Volleyball has moved indoors, and many pools have transformed into ice rinks or roller skating venues. As for skating, it’s a no-go for me—falling isn’t worth the risk!
The Colors and Smells of Fall
Autumn’s colors rival a rainbow, with leaves turning red, orange, and yellow, while some remain green. The sky showcases a blend of blue, indigo, and violet hues. Beyond visuals, autumn engages other senses—think of the fragrant aroma of yellow bananas, orange pumpkins, and brown stews. On September 22, the autumnal equinox officially welcomes the season.
Celebrations of Autumn
Fall is marked by significant events, starting with Halloween on October 31 in the USA. While not a holiday, it’s widely celebrated. Thanksgiving follows on the fourth Thursday of November. The date has shifted through history, but it was finalized in 1941 and has been celebrated as a harvest feast ever since.
Thanksgiving Traditions and Flavors
Thanksgiving in the USA signifies gratitude for abundance. The holiday brings iconic smells and flavors—turkey with cornbread stuffing, sweet yams, glazed apples, and various baked fruit pies fill homes with warmth and aroma. However, not all communities acknowledge Thanksgiving, and some actively protest, marking it as a National Day of Mourning.
Sounds and Festivities of Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is not just a feast for the taste buds—it’s a celebration for the senses. Streets come alive with parades, homecomings, and marching bands. Football games dominate televisions, while children enjoy festivities such as collecting candy and participating in community events.
The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Since 1924, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has been a highlight of the season, with few interruptions. It paused during World War II and adapted to COVID-19 in 2020. As the world gradually returns to normal, we hope for the parade’s full-scale revival, bringing back its pomp and pageantry.
Wrapping Up the Season
Autumn brings a mix of celebration, nostalgia, and anticipation. Whether through sights, smells, or traditions, it’s a time to embrace the unique charm of the season. Happy Autumn to all!
