a little homesick for New England (but still love Colorado)

I really love this ...

but this time of year I really miss this ...
Autumn in New England ...
I miss the all the excitement that only happens there this time of year, like pumpkin patches ...
and pumpkin festivals with your favorite friends ...
and hayrides ...
and apple picking (a time honored New England tradition) ...
with amazing friends ...
and nothing compares to baseball in October ...
being played by your beloved team ...
I love Colorado and am so glad to call it home but I really ache for New England right now. I guess I always will this time of year. I guess a part of me always will ...

Ooh this is a tough one. I think you should plan a family trip in the fall to New England every year and pick the best pumpkins!

Me too. I think I get to visit at the end of the month when Bill goes back to HBS for work. Sadly it seems everyone has moved away. I will have no playmates. I will have ot make the most of it by myself.
