On this first day of fall, I awoke to temperatures in the 60s.  And low humidity. It was such a relief, and so nice not to be sweating for a change!

I took the above photo earlier this week, when we finally had a good, soaking rain. It wasn’t enough to mitigate the drought, but it was very welcome. I had to wait in my car until it let up enough for me to go out, so I just sat there and enjoyed it – and took a few pictures.

I am grateful to be living in a state where the seasons change.
