Portland, Or
A rainy day . . .
Much as I love weeks of sunny weather, I’d almost forgotten the appeal of a rainy day. I love the sound of tires on wet pavement, the raindrops on foliage, the smell of rain and wet soil. I like driving into the mountains and seeing the fog roll into the canyons like cream out of a pitcher. I even like wearing sweaters.

Followed by darker evenings . . .
I can’t deny that the sun is setting earlier and earlier these days – and I don’t like the dark evenings. I go thru a LOT of candles in the dark months!
I can’t deny the wheel of the seasons is turning
It takes me awhile every year but eventually I stop grasping for every bit of summer that’s left and start to enjoy and look forward to autumn. Still grabbing up the summer tomatoes – but starting to look forward to fall apples, cider and cooler weather.
