Fall Is Coming

School buses are on the road. Kids are on the bike path early with bikes, skateboards, and backpacks. The sun’s angle is just a bit different, and it is rising later each day. And setting earlier, too.

And I just harvested my first two tomatoes last week. This picture is whackadoo!

Also not really so comfortable for me.

I know. I know. There are plenty of warm days to come. This past weekend was in the 90's and H.O.T! I am planning to clear my bike-riding miles goal with no problem. However. Today and tomorrow? Ju-u-ust a bit…not…warm, with a hint of the change of the season.

And I am not ready.

I am really really glad I am not suffering with a month of 100 degree (and humid) temps typical of the midwest (where I lived for many years of my life). And yet, it does not seem like my summer lasts quite long enough where I am living now.

Maybe it wouldn’t seem so bad if school held off until Labor Day, and the school supplies in stores were banned until after the first of August.

But. Since that isn’t going to happen, I better just buck up, and get ready. Aspens will be turning in a month.
