A Slight Reprieve

There have been just a few little signs that Fall is on the way around here lately.

I know.

I can’t believe it either.

I mean, this is SOUTH Louisiana after all.

But today I found the temperatures in the earlier part of the day to be quite pleasant and I went to get the mail and did not start dripping sweat on the way back up the driveway.

Amazing.

And I sat outside comfortably in the middle of the day while K played in the screened-in porch and I didn’t want to die.

More amazing.

There are signs that it is still Summer of course though too.  And…

     

…I’m sure now that I’ve typed this other stuff about loving the weather that next week will be horrendous again but today was pretty beautiful so I’m holding on to that for now.
