It is not like anything different has really changed. Yesterday we still had temps in the 80s.
Je won't pretend to understand how fallen leaves work. I mean, I do, but I don't.
Take this picture to the left? I took it two weeks ago on a walk (since I was not able to run). One yard - one! - had its leaves down. Like most of them. Of the 100 houses I passed on the same walk, they had none.
And no, it's not like the others raked them. They were all attached to their trees.
Still, it was a stark reminder that this is coming - and sooner than later. Our plumber sent us an email a few weeks ago about our outdoor taps and winterizing them at least two weeks earlier than usual. Usual is Halloween. So he's expecting colder weather sooner.
The old me would have bitched about that. The old-new me found the heat of this last summer intolerable, and I like running in cool or cold weather much better than the surface of the sun.
Overall, Fall is probs the best season. Or usually the most consistent in terms of temps and precipitation.
I don't think I'll mind hunkering down as it cools. Books to be read and all.
