After months of searing heat, the arrival of Fall has brought relief. Temperatures are actually in the fifties and it is nice to have the windows open and feel the breeze gently caressing one. But Fall also brings a sense of wow, it is almost the end of the year and what have I achieved this year?
Actually quite a bit. We sold a house after a bit of struggle with the realtors, bought another thousands of miles away, endured two months of cramped quarters waiting for end of school year, said goodbye to a set of dear friends and spent anothe couple of months making the new house ours. And in between, managed to put in a trip to the Grand Canyons o share he solar eclipse withlarge groups of enthusiasts, and gawked at the ostentatiousness and shameless consumerism of Sin City and the still awesomeness of Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. As well as a month of feverish driving around Houston, Austin and New Orleans to walk in the relentless heat on college campuses and the craziness of NOLA with a determined first born we haven't seen in some years. All in all, a very busy year so far.
As well on the job front. But that is not for this space.
Hope the year ends well. With a new set of friends and plans for family reunion. It is lonely without F & F.
