The changing of the seasons...

sarahmichelefIt's become more and more obvious to me over the past several years that I simply adore the transitional seasons. The first day that you drive around with the windows down, the first day when you walk out in the morning and can feel that little bite in the air. THAT morning was this morning... it was 53 degrees when we left the house, just cool enough to want a light jacket, and the air felt ... clean.
As I drove downtown to take TRex to school, there was a CRAZY cloudbank over the lake and the river (to the south and to the west). I suppose I will eventually get used to the strange weather patterns that the lake causes, but it hasn't happened yet.
And so my mind moves to fall things. We're going to take some or all of the coleus out of TRex's garden and pot it. I REALLY want to get the compost pile at least constructed this fall - I have a mental plan for it but need to buy the lumber and hardware and secure the loan of a circular saw (I'm quite certain SOMEONE in the Barony will have one that they'll be willing to let me use for a weekend). Though the idea of just using a big trash can with a locking lid, at least until we have more garden, is sounding better and better, so maybe we'll just do that. Instant gratification and all that.
