Colleen's Aunt Sue wrote me a great e-mail talking about her deer hunting trip and much of it revolved around the weather. She mentioned a change in seasons and that got me thinking... I even walked outside to look.
It really is starting to change seasons around here. The sky was mostly overcast and that big yellow heat-tab in the sky was behind a blanket of low clouds.
Now that I think about it, that has been the case for the last few days. The morning clouds seem to hang around until about 9 or 10 in the morning and then the heat of the day dissipates them until evening and then they start to come out again.
The temps are starting to fall and it is going from an unbearable 95-100 degrees at night to a more reasonable 75-80. It is definitely fall around here now, but the leaves are still resiliently green under their blankets of dust.
Seasons seem to be changing around here too. People seem to be out and about more. They seem to be enjoying not being cooped up in the sporadic AC all day hiding from the energy sapping heat.
There are good things coming up around here and the seasons are changing. Evidences that we are slowing getting pulled out of Iraq are starting to show. General Kelly talks about it in this article http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,439612,00.html .
The seasons are changing and although change is not always comfortable, it is constant.
Thanks Sue for that great e-mail and I will reply, hopefully sometime today!
Semper Fi,
