Finally the Sun

I am in a very good mood this morning, perhaps because the sun is FINALLY out, or perhaps it’s because that wonderful fall feeling is in the air. The latter is difficult to describe beyond a feeling of change, a feeling of excitement and anticipation of new things to come.

The next few weeks are going to be a lot of fun. The days will progressively get shorter and cooler, the nights crisp and clear, and the research season will draw to a close leaving weekends free for road trips or just lounging about on warm afternoon with a book over at the coffee shop. Summer clothes will be packed away and the fall/winter wardrobe hauled out of storage. This year most of the cool weather wardrobe will go away as what I wore last year no longer fits and needs to be replaced with smaller sizes and nicer styles.

Anyway…I’m off to gather the field equipment and think about heading out of here. Should be a good, quick afternoon of research.
