Fall leaf drive

Fall is beautiful, in and of it's self, it is romantic.
Take a drive to a near by canyon or meadow where there are lot's of trees.  If you are crunched for time, the kids are in beds asleep, or a canyon is a little far off,  you can do this in your very own back yard.
Have a leaf scavenger hunt.  Find a yellow leaf a red leaf a polka dotted leave, a red veined leaf, etc.  You will be amazed at how many different varieties of leaves you can find.  Find the most beautiful one and save it as a memento.
Through leaves up and at each other, make piles of leaves and lay in them.  Cuddle in the leaves as you look above and watch even more leaves fall.  if leaves are not falling in big numbers, count the leaves as they fall.  make estimates of how many will fall in one minute.  Shake branches of leaves down on each other.  See how many you can knock out of the tree with rocks and see who can score higher. use your imagination and come up with other things to do in the leaves and I'm talking about G-rated things people :)  have fun together and don't forget to smooch now and again.
