Brittany - Atmosphere


The weather changes
The wind picks up
The leaves fall
The temperature drops
The whole mood of the atmosphere changes
Summer is gone, fall is rolling in and winter is on its way
Winter in New Orleans
No trace of snow, just blunt cold weather
Along the river you can feel the cold air rolling in
The wind picking up
The temperature dropping
Winter in New Orleans

Brittany, age 16
