Today we had our Not-Back-To-School picnic. That's right, I'm a homeschooler. I have been homeschooled my whole life. Our local homeschooler's group has a picnic every fall at a local farm/park. It's always a fun day to hang out in fields, talk to friends, play games, and eat ice cream. Every family is supposed to bring an ice cream topping for sundaes, but I don't think everyone did this year. It was still a great deal of fun, and as always, boiled down to me and a bunch of friends laughing.

For me, these picnics always mark the true beginning of fall, and the "school" season. What special event tells you that it's really autumn?
