I went for my daily lunchtime walk today and I must say, its a glorious day outside. Bright, sunny, not a cloud in the sky and 77 degrees.
But as I walked, I realized something...Fall is just around the corner.
I realized the bright green leaves from even just last week have now been replaced by dull green ones - I can see the reds and yellows slipping in to their colors.
Fall is coming.
I realized that I didn't hear the cicadas that I always hear during the hot summer days. All was quiet - just a few crickets cricketing.
Its been cooler at night - upper 50's to low 60's. Just cool enough to need a light blanket on the bed and to be grateful for when Luna jumps up to cuddle. I appreciate her extra body warmth.
Football season is just around the corner. While I'm thrilled about this for Nicole (Geaux Tigers!), I can't help but feel a little sad too.
Summer is my favorite season. And when Fall rolls around, I tend to feel a little sadness creeping in. Summer is almost over.
But never fear!! There is still time left! Labor Day is still just under a week away. And there are plenty of beach weekends left. The Jersey shore in the Fall rocks! All the warmth, all the high ocean water temps, and none of the crowds!
So I'm looking forward to soaking in all the goodness while it lasts....because in no time, we'll be pulling out our warm wooley blankets and toasty warm shoes!
