“She told me the seasons were changing. The sun was shining but it was not hot. I could feel a sense of irritability in the air. Breezy, calm, breezy, no one noticed, and no one cared at least not this day. Perhaps when one thinks about yet another change to endure, the water down the drain, or maybe the days gone by they will fret. It will turn cold; it will rain or maybe snow. Residing indoors hovering near a warm cavern of sorts will be utmost. Watch through your window, it will come, the night will last. She told me the seasons were changing. I told her, yeah I know.”
One of my favorite musings I wrote almost a decade ago while sitting on a bench along the Columbia River basking in the mid-September sunshine.
And so it goes in autumn, you can feel the change in the air. It was chilly Monday morning almost everywhere, even along the coast. Locally, Vancouver neighborhoods dipped into the mid-40s with outlying areas into the 30s and patchy frost. Phil Delany above Dole Valley recorded 35 degrees.
Another nice day today and Thursday with sunshine and mild temperatures. Then another low tries to drop yet more rain into the rain gauge Thursday through the weekend. Most of the steady rain will be on Friday. We may stay dry Thursday.
