Unlike squirrels, who are active and busy during the autumn, many people slow down during this time. The expression "autumn years" refers to the later years of a person' s life, especially after a person has stopped working. For example, "She worked hard all her life. She saved her money and invested it wisely. So, she was able to enjoy her autumn years in comfort. She was finally able to travel around the world."
As summer ends, so does today's Words and Their Stories. And like summer, we will return, not in a year, but rather next week!
