Fall

The weather has changed so much around here. Only three weeks ago, the temperature would be around 100 degrees everyday, but now the afternoons are warm and the evenings are almost chilly. I'm glad. I love fall much more than summer. It is just too hot during the summer. Fall is the perfect time of year to do anything -- take walks, read a book outside, play a little tennis, go shopping, or even take a hike. I'm hoping we can go on a hike when the leaves change colors so I can get some good pictures.

Fall weather does make it difficult to pack for a trip, though, because it means I have to bring cooler clothes for warmer days and warmer clothes for cooler days. I'm already trying to figure out what will be the best things to pack when we travel down to visit our family next week. We were supposed to take our last trip back home for the summer three weeks ago, but it didn't work out and our vacation got pushed back to next week. So, we were planning on leaving this Saturday. Now that's not going to work out, so we have to wait to leave until next Thursday. Changing plans so many times is NOT fun, but we have decided, definitely, once and for all, that we are leaving Thursday. If we push it back any further we might as well wait until Thanksgiving. This way, at least, we'll be able to stay longer -- about ten days. Anyway, it will be great to go home for a visit and we've already have plans made to do some fun stuff with family and friends while we're there.
