Back Porch Morning Coffee Muses

The only thing wrong with sitting on the back porch at this time of year is the sun glaring in my eyes. I hate to think I may have to get a pair of sunglasses to sit on the porch. Now I remember why I always left my floppy hat out here. I could always pull the brim down to block the sun in my eyes.

Ok, that’s better…

Glare corrected by judicious use of cloth. The morning temperature is a bit more moderate, it was all of 76° in the shade on the other side of the house when I came out. Now, on this porch, in the shade, it’s 83°. And I’m sitting in the sun…

I so hate that spending a half hour or so in my rocking chair requires a shower when I’m done. Hardly seems fair for fall. I feel my mountain dreams coming on, it’s 58° on this porch right now….

Ahhh, cool mountain air. Of course, the leaves are turning up in the mountains right now. So there it actually is fall.

Time to run…
