As the daylight fades and the nights grow longer, the warm lazy summer melts into the crisp multicolored beauty of fall. It is a time for change, a time to air out, clean up and organize our home and office. The deciduous leaves on bushes and trees coat themselves in hues of crimson, goldenrod and variegated browns; and the crisp fall breeze invigorates us. We breathe deeply, close our eyes and envision a stroll along a tree-lined path among the crackling autumn leaves fluttering down from the trees.
