Yesterday was Nice

How lovely to have a beautiful cloudy day. My MIL said it was like a Colorado sky, with lots of nice little floaty puffy pillowy clouds. HH grew up in Colorado, until middle school, anyway, which was called junior high back in THOSE DAYS. I wonder that high school is still called high school, and grade school is still called grade school, but jr high is no longer called jr high. Grumble grouse gvetch. Ha! I just spelled that word wrong because I wanted it to start with a "g".

We had a lovely time playing for a 10 years celebration company picnic thing. Super guy Alan owns business and plays Congas with us now and then. Love all people in the band, too. Hope none of them leave.

HH returned in good health, but v tired. Had a lovely time Saturday, but in Castle Rock, WA, it rained rained rained buckets Sunday, and he waited waited waited for it to stop, but it never did, so he just had to ride in it, and get wet. It dried up when he got as far as McMinnville, OR. So glad he didn't bring rain with him, as we were having lovely time in beautiful weather playing for picnic thing.

Got to quit goofing off here. DD has to be at violin teacher's house, with new violas to win approval for which instrument to buy. DD has switched from violin to viola, and I have to learn to quit saying violin.

We got a little rain yesterday. It was so nice and seemed to clean the air a bit, but didn't make much of a difference to the garden.
Today it's cooler and feels a little bit like the end of summer is approaching. There is a different quality to the light outside....hard to describe, but it seems earlier than usual this year.
Glad HH made it home safely and that you had a nice weekend.

I'm glad we stayed dry! You know, it almost felt like "going to school" weather... (eeewe, shudder, shudder.)

Aww, You Guys! I refuse to recognize anything fall-like in this weather. R-E-F-U-S-E!

There really IS a Castle Rock? (Sorry Stephen King fan here)...but yours is not in Maine...
And I love the phrase "Colorado Sky."
