We went on a family hike the Saturday before we left for Hawaii. Spencer was really itching to find a geocache. We couldn't go in the morning because I was doing Christmas crafts with the women at church. So we went after lunch, and it was hot! See those red faces? This is under Niblick bridge.
I had to be careful how I angled the camera to avoid the bad graffiti. Although it felt good to get out of the hot sun, we couldn't stay there too long.
It's hard to believe it was that hot not so long ago. We tend to get one last big heat wave in October.
My friend Nancy gave me some black-eyed susans for my birthday a couple years ago. AND she planted them for me. What a good friend! I love them so much. They all died after our recent frosts, along with the remains of our garden. I had to actually buy tomatoes and zucchini at the store last week.
The first rainy day of the season is a really big deal. The boys always love to break out the umbrellas and run around in the rain. After 7 dry months, it feels so good!
Spencer ran around taking pictures of our wet yard.
So pretty!!
I do enjoy a change in seasons, as long as it doesn't get TOO cold. The low was in the teens all last week, and that was a bit much.
