Wow, great question! On a perfect autumn day I would probably spend it outside doing anything from reading, playing games with my friends, or just laying out under the sky watching the clouds. I love being outdoors and in the fall the weather is so beautiful you can't help but be outside enjoying it!

If i had a beautiful autumn day to spend however i wanted i would most likely go on a picnic. I would wear warm clothes because it would probably be a little chilly. I would probably go with my best friend matt and it would be a blast.

Fall is my favortie season and i would roll around in the leaves and go watch my boyfrend play baseball. I would go on walks and of course at night go trick or treating! ;)
I like the picture next to the quote!

Hmmm...well when I was a kid I never got to like play in the leaves and things like that. So i would have to do that for sure. Hopefully I would get to do it with someone who means a lot to me, or maybe a bunch of my friends. It would be fun just hanging out outside with them. We would deffinatly make it exciting. haha.

wow, i could really use one of those right now--a day with no school, leaves falling, perfect temperature, and all my friends. we would probably have a picnic and afterwards we might make a pile of leaves and jump into them like we did when we were little kids. and it may be a little early, but some pumpkin carving would be fun too!

If i had the perfect fall day i would rake up a huge pile of freashly fallen leaves and jump as high as i could, landing right upon the pile. Then i would have all my friends to come over and enjoy the day. I would stay outside all day, either taking pictures or walking my dogs around. I would also, take the scenic routes to where ever i was going for the day to view the colorfull trees!

wow i love fall! i love all the different colors of trees. it is absolutly beautiful. i would spend the day with by best friend, who just like me loves how pretty autumn is. i love it when u drive and the trees are hanging over the road and there are leaves on the ground and as u drive over them u can look back and watch them scatter in the wind. there are always those trees that look better than the rest that you love the most. you can just sit under the trees and wait for a big gust of wind to blow some of the leaves off and watch where the land. its soooo gorgeous!

Then we would arive at dawt mill and sit by the waterfall and watch the water and the pretty trees. basically the best day ever!

Hmm... if it was the perfect autum day i would probably go on a picnic. And maybe if it was kinda chilly have some apple cidar to drink. I would want to be hanging out with a couple of my close friends and just talk. Or maybe spend it with the guy you like or your boyfriend. Sounds like a pretty romnatic and relaxing day to me!

If I had a perfect day I would probably have to work with my luck. Which means that I would not enjoy that day much at all. So I guess a perfect day would be just like any other day.

I would take a walk. I would take me time, and think; contemplate the world and my life, and how things were going. People are so rushed and always stressed these days. Everyone should take a day, especially a day like that, to themselves. Go outside, run around! Enjoy the weather. :)

If I had a perfect fall day and I could spend it however I wanted, I would stay in a cabin with many trees around it with the leaves falling. I would sleep in, have a nice big warm breakfast, take a walk in the pathway of the trees, and just take the day easy and of course i would have people staying with me.

If I had a perfect fall day to spend however I wanted I would:
1. Rake up leaves and jump in them.
2. I would most likely write some sort of poem outside about fall.
3. I would pick out my favorite fall outfit and take pictures of myself and friends.
4. Hang out with my boyfriend Gary all day.
5. I would also want to go out to my grandma's house because my horses are out there, and I would love to go and play with them.
That is how I would spend a perfect fall day if I could spend it however I wanted! :)

If I had that one special day to where I could do whatever I wnted I would probably do nothing. I would stay inside wrapped up in my blankets and sleep till noon. Then I would get up and make my self ramon noodles and drink tea. I would relax on the couch eating and watching tv. For the rest of the day I would just chill and let the day go by. That would be a great day.

Fall is definitely my favorite seaon to be outside. Just doing anything outdoors would be great, maybe playing some tennis or going for a walk. I wouldnt even mind laying out in a hammock and just chilling for awhile. Basically i would spend this day relaxing and forgetting my worries.
