Oops missed a day or two there...
When I started to wirte this post, it was going to be about how much I love fall. That changed as I love all the season's (I think that's why I love living here, where we actually get 4 different seasons, sometimes all in one day, but those are the risks. Anyway...), but I think what it is is that I love the transistions more than anything. September is the month where you can have a hot day where you're in shorts working in the yard. The next day might be chilly, but fresh. The grass is still green but the leaves are starting to change and so the contrast between the green grass and the yellow and red leaves is very striking. You can still have your window open at night, but by the morning, you'll be burried under the covers to ward off the early morning chill. It stays light late enough that you can still go for a daylight walk after dinner.
I don't understand how poeple can live in climates where nothing ever changes, it seems like it would become very monotonous after a while. To each his own.
I love this time of year.
Played flag football last night for the corporate challenge. What a blast! Played at the stadium on artificial turf. Ouch, that hurts! Won one, lost one, no finals for us. But it was a perfect night for football, tonight - not so much. It's going to take me a few days to recover, I feel a bit like I've been run over by a truck (I think one of the guys that I ran into was that big). Sunday is the goofy obstacle course. I'm glad I was able to prove to people that I have some athletic ability prior to making a fool of myslef in flippers sifting through a pile of sand.
