         We had some cooler weather a couple weeks ago, but now we’re back to hot and humid.

6. A perfect celebration of the transition of summer to fall. Today I was out taking inspiration photos of the change in our neck of the woods.

   1. I read the NOAA forecast for winter. It said the upper midwest and east coast would have a cold, snowy winter. After a rainless spring and summer, that might be what we need.

7. You express so well the positivity of this season. It’s one I love, but I still find its advance at this time of year sad.

   1. I have maple trees turning in my neighborhood. I think it’s early but with the lack of rain, who knows? It was 56 degrees Saturday morning. I could feel the change in the air. Next week, we’ll be back to summer. LOL!

         1. For sure. Years ago I lived in Okeechobee, FL. At Christmas it was 80 degrees F. I cried! LOL! I’m a northerner, and I guess I always will be. Many people enjoy the heat. I’m just not one of them. Autumn is refreshing after the heat of summer.

          1. Wow! We’re still in the 70s and 80s during the day. I can’t complain. When we lived in Arizona is was 117! I’ll take this any day! 😀

             1. 70s and 80s sounds perfect for the end of August. 117… that’s unbearable!
