Fall is slowly arriving


Well, I am noticing yellow leaves on the trail. The light has changed; there's a bend to it that gives it a different effect than before. Summer is waning. It happens this way--slowly but surely. I focused on the alpen glow on a painting this morning and recalled how the cold feels--in the buildings, outside, in the car. It will be here soon!

This summer, we had three sets of guests. One group is still here, the Currottos. All have been good visits. I like all the commotion in the house. Perhaps that is because I grew up with four brothers, a big family by my standards. I wish people would visit here in winter too but I guess that isn't exactly what most folks seek on vacation.
