This Week...Embracing Our Fall Weather

 

Even though our weather has been in the 80s during the day, our mornings have started out nice and cool (for us). 

 


Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.
George Eliot

 

Everyone on our morning walks had smiles on their faces and commented about the weather. Even the dogs were more frisky!

There is a harmony in autumn, and a luster in its sky, which through the summer is not heard or seen, as if it could not be, as if it had not been! Percy Bysshe Shelley


It may not seem important to you but any day without our Houston humidity is a good day and cause to celebrate!

 

I trust in nature for the stable laws of beauty and utility. Spring shall plant and autumn garner to the end of time. Robert Browning

 

It’s hard for me to say that I have a favorite season...I welcome each one. 

However, Spring asks us to start planting and cleaning,...Summer wants us to travel and pack as much fun as we can in 3 months...and Winter is packed with holidays to plan and buy for and family visits to schedule. 

Fall, on the other hand, asks nothing of us but to sit back and relax and enjoy the transition from summer to winter. 

 

When autumn darkness falls, what we will remember are the small acts of kindness: a cake, a hug, an invitation to talk, and every single rose. These are all expressions of a nation coming together and caring about its people. Jens Stoltenberg

 

Enjoy your Fall Weekend!

Kathy, nice to hear your humidity is better during these autumn months.   I couldn't handle the high humidity days.

Chef Dolores needed a jacket when she went to pick up our groceries this morning.

Enjoy the colors of the season.

Hello Kathy, Of course I love low humidity in the Denver area, and remember what it was like in Pennsylvania.  Love that you are walking alot.

Wayne Martin I miss Atlantic Avenue and the beach, especially in the winter. 

Michael Jacobs It feels as if you stepped outside into a sauna!

Kat Palmiotti oddly enough, I'm so used to the humidity, that when we went to Vegas, for example, I couldn't get enough water!  I was so thirsty. 

Nina Hollander, Broker we have glimpses of the leaves turning into their beautiful colors but nothing like up north.

Brian England we had fun this morning on our walks...some boy scouts were breaking camp and there was a small run that was going on!!! Everyone was so happy. 

Ron and Alexandra Seigel we will be in the low 80s today so Fall has been put on the back burner for a few days.

Hi Kathy Streib - There is something so special about fall.  Your images are remarkable.  I especially enjoy the pics with clouds.  Of course, Southern California and Florida do not have a real change of seasons and this may give us a heightened appreciation of the change in seasons. Happy Saturday!

Bill Salvatore - YVP Blog as much as we enjoyed the snow we had in February, we're not wanting that this winter. 

Joan Cox you get used to it!  But thank goodness for air-conditioning.

Kathy I have experienced the Huston humidity, and I completely agree that a day without if is a day worth celebrating.

Morning Kathy.

In my neck of the woods (for me anyway) it is lite sweater season.

I have always enjoyed fall, especially the changing of the color of leaves.  Today however, a storm has arrived in Sacramento.  It will provide much needed precipitation to our state, which is in severe drought.  It's one of the first times I've looked at rain with such glee.

Hi Kathy:

We have had a number of summer-like days recently, but the nights have definitely felt Fall-like. Starting to think about lighting that fireplace in the evenings!

Love those photos and quotes...it's a beautiful time of year, isn't it?

It's finally cooled off here in Mississippi and the lower humidity is divine! The weather makes you want to get outdoors and enjoy the lower temps.
