A Friday Walk at Work IV

On Friday I took another afternoon walk at work. Friday is always a good day to take a walk as the work week is winding down and it allows you time to think if you finished everything that needs to be done.

I had a good walk, as it was not very hot. It is nice that it is finally cooling off.

I am glad that the weekend is finally here. It has been a very long week.

Feeling like Fall

Today was a day when it just all of a sudden started feeling like fall.

Altamont, Backset, sunset, storm clouds, California, green hillsPart of it was that we had a cloudy day today and the temperatures had dropped from earlier in the week. We are finally having those cooler days.

I had not really been noticing this, but did see them out the window earlier today and it just hit me that it is fall.

Tall Grass, electric mower, rain delayI have also been seeing a lot more leaves on the driveway and sidewalk as they fall off the tree in my front yard. It was very noticeable when I went out for my newspaper this morning.
