You Can’t Will Fall to Come
Despite baking bread and making homemade stew I couldn’t make it feel like Fall. I even toyed around with the idea of lighting a fire in the fireplace, but decided that if I did the air conditioner would be sure to kick on. So instead of Fall we are still enjoying Northwest summer, with highs in the upper 70s.
What started out as playing with bubbles on the deck…
Turned, as almost everything does, to playing in the water. It is generally safer and more fun for everyone if Jillian, not Wesley, has the hose.
Happy Belated Fall
We are enjoying our cool fall days… Low of mid 50’s high of mid 80’s!
I guess that is one of the good things about living in Austin.

Last Sunday as I wrote about here Wesley was swimming at Bull Creek. It was 85F, sunny, clear and warm. By Monday morning it was 52F and so foggy you could hardly see your hand in front of your face. We even had to turn the heater on. It works, so that is a good thing. I wasn’t sure if it would or not. It had been tested during the house inspection, but so had the A/C and we all know how well that turned out.
This week the humidity has dropped to below 25 percent. Apparently that is a big deal around here. We have had wind chill alerts because the low humidity causes you to lose moisture and body heat really quickly. It feels more dessert like now. Cold nights that cool off quickly and days that are dry and warm up with lots of blue sky. Much different than when it was 95F and muggy at midnight .
Now, get this, there is a FROST ADVISORY! Good lord, frost! If we don’t make it out alive remember that we love you all.
