This morning I checked the upcoming weather forecast and was delighted to see this: It is currently 82 degrees and I just took Shiloh for a walk. I purposely took my phone so I could capture a bit of fall color. That last one wasn’t an attempt to be artsy but a matter of accidentally…

I really don’t like to wear socks. If I could wear nothing but my Birkenstocks year round, I’d be happy. Unfortunately my feet get cold and then I feel cold all over. Guess it’s time to drag out my socks and order some more. I have a couple of pairs of these: I am going…
31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 6 – Stocking Up
