Change is on the Way

It started earlier this month, after weeks of 90+ degrees, it just dropped to 70s and even sometimes 50s at night.

Now, while walking Petey yesterday, I saw this. A tree that is changing colours already.

Granted, it is only one tree, at least on the walk we did, but it is the sign of things to come.

Of course I know this. Cyclical it is, as the Earth revolves around that gaseous ball of hot plasma and hydrogen.

Walks in the morning are no longer in the light. It's light by the time we're done, just not when we start. {sigh}

But I'm enjoying it as it comes. What are the alternatives?

I'll save my hate and resentment for Winter.

The end of summer really depresses me. It takes me a few weeks to get over it/

You guys need to spend a Summer down here in the South. After that, you will rejoice in the season that is called Autumn.

Having moved from Michigan to Arizona, I miss the arrival of autumn. Thanks for the glimpse.
