Happy October!


This is as close as we get to pretty Fall colors here in the South. Today, we greeted the day with delicious temps in the low 50's. It has been close to 5 months since we have enjoyed such cool dry weather. Heavenly!

We have had an unusually high amount of rain for September. There are now subtle signs that Fall is here. The Cypress trees are turning rusty red, the summer weeds are dying off and soon the winter weeds will sprout, the pastures have a golden brown tint to them and it is actually cool in the morning instead of the 80's. Last week might have been our last gasp of summer with highs in the mid-90's . You know we're there when we do not have to run the A.C. !
