Autumn at home after the clocks change

Fall Back Weekend Word Search
Instructions: Find all 10 words. They run across or down. Tap the first letter, then the last.
The clocks fell back an hour on Sunday, and that means the long evenings of fall are here for real. Today's word search is about the season at home: raking leaves, stacking the woodpile, a mug of cider, and the first night the furnace kicks on. All 10 words run across or down, so there are no backwards or diagonal tricks. Tap the first letter of a word, then the last letter, and it crosses off the list. There's no timer, and your progress saves on this device if you need to step away. Below the puzzle you'll find a few facts about why we change our clocks at all.
