Our first cool snap is here. The temperature is 66º right now and I’m loving it. And, as the picture shows, there is a bit of ground fog coming off the bayou this morning. That’s a common fall morning feature…
Judging by the quietness of the past two mornings, more than just the hummingbirds have ridden the cool front southward on their fall migration. Though, as I say that, it seems there are more about today than there were yesterday.
The reason for the title of this post is the prognosticators are telling us that these 60° mornings are only going to last till the weekend and then we’ll be seeing the 70’s again for at least another week.
Once it finally arrives I truly love fall. And most of winter along this Gulf Coast just allows me to wear long sleeve t-shirts, so it’s pretty nice too.
I’m ready for even cooler temps and lower humidity, but will I quibble about this? No, sir. And it finally seems a little more certain that our late-season hurricane’s going to stay well east of us, so life is good.
I’m doing a little travel next month, and even though I tried booking late because I didn’t know what my schedule would be, I’m going to have the pleasure of one night at the Queen Wilhemina Lodge. I remembered you praising it, which is why I tried in the first place. I just happened to call five minutes after someone had cancelled. Otherwise, they were completely booked for the whole month! I’m really looking forward to it.
