It’s finally feeling like normal weather around here. I woke up this morning and I could hear the rain hitting the tin bucket on my deck. It was a beautiful sound after so many years of drought. My memories of November when I was a kid were of cold weather, rain and the smell of wet leaves. Not running around in shorts with the smell of sunblock on your skin. The other day I had to throw my sweaters in the dryer to dust them off. One of them still had the sale tag on it from two years ago. I was shopping for colder weather to come. I didn’t know I was shopping for two years in advance.
