Ah, like clockwork, the cooling fall weather brings the inevitable head cold. No hiking for me yesterday. Fortunately I didn’t have to go far to take in the scenery.

The last two days have been dark and overcast. Yesterday morning you could smell the moisture in the air. This evening you could feel the rain. Only for a moment did the sky open up, showcasing Gothics on the horizon.

Based on the above, Fall seems to be a bit behind from last year. With the warm weather we’ve been getting, this makes sense. Regardless, I can’t wait to see how the season transpires!
