A Cold Front …

Fall Starburst
Fall Starburst

… is on it’s way. Temperature tonight is expected to be in the high 20’s then low 30’s on Tuesday night. But, this past week and the weekend have been gorgeous. Yesterday was 74. Yesterdays sunrise was gorgeous but I only saw it from my bedroom window. Just couldn’t get out the door. Kids on campus wearing, shorts, flip-flops and tank tops. People were biking and playing football at the city park. I took advantage of the weather and made a couple trips to the nature areas. I’m making chili soup today. Stay warm.

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.

    It was supposed to hit the mid-50s here today, but I don’t think it broke 50. First time this season I’ve felt a real chill. Stay warm yourself, Monte!

    Yeah, it’s that time of year. I’ve had a Ficus Tree for the last 13 years that I’ve moved inside during the fall and outside during the spring of each year before and after seasonal frost. This year it stood almost 7 feet tall and weighted well over 150 lbs. Yesterday I donated and delivered it to the day room in a new building of Rowan Helping Ministries here in Salisbury, NC. I don’t have to move it again and its life and beauty can be appreciated by those who have so little — a plus, plus result. Great starburst in the photo! Monte.
