While my friends on the Blue Ridge are climbing out of bed this morning and firing up their stoves to beat back the cold we finaly greeted some nice fall weather. The temperature this morning as I sit and write this is 46°. The sky is clear and we should see a pleasant mid 70’s by mid-afternoon. It looks as if we will have our first autumn weekend.

This is the first we have seen of 40° weather since last winter…I see from the weather email that Floyd and Boone will both stay in the 40’s all day…Keep a log on the fire guys, you’ll need it.

Breakfast this morning is a splurge to celebrate the weather…Rosemary potato bread toast (big, thick, sliced just before it went into the toaster slices) with butter and St. Dalfour Wild Blueberry 100% fruit spread…What a way to start a cool morning. Now I will admit there is no fire and in reality the kitchen door is open a crack to let some of that cool fall air in to make appreciate the long sleeve henley I am wearing to work today.

Email calls…I’ll check back later…
