Winter Wonderland

[ksmith]

Ok, maybe not quite. But we are experiencing a bout of unseasonable coolness, with temps running 15-20 degrees below mid-August norms. The pups are peppy, I'm shivering, and the lands End Outlet catalog couldn't have come at a better time. Found a squall parka, snow boots, and other assorted gear. A good pair of wind pants is still on the to-buy list.

In a couple of weeks, we'll be into the -ber months. I don't quite believe it.

Oh that does sound heavenly. I would also love a Christmas that is not 80 degrees and smoggy, and I would love to have it rain so often that I cannot easily recall every single shower of the previous year, and just how very few minutes it lasted.

The idea of sleeping under a blanket rather than a roaring fan sounds so...so alien, yet so charming.

I guess I shouldn't mention that I seriously considering starting a fire in the fireplace last night...
