Over the last month I have really been craving and missing the fall weather that we have up in the Midwest. I wanted the cool breeze, the chance to put on an oversized sweater and go for a walk, drinking hot tea without sweating, see the leaves changing colors. And for some reason that I do not know, I associate football games with these cooler temps. Not that I watch a lot of football, but when I do, I want it to be cold outside. I've been to tailgates down here when it's 100 degrees and it just doesn't feel right.
Luckily for me Austin had a "cold front" over the weekend that brought the highs to the 80s and the lows to the 50s. This made me ecstatic. I completely took advantage of this on Sunday and went for a walk around my neighborhood, took my Little for a walk around her neighborhood (I love my walks) and watched the last of Hondo's performances in A Midsummer Night's Dream, to which I wore a sweater! I have also soundly slept with my window open and woken up to a nice chilly room. I could probably go on and on about why I love this fall weather, but I will stop now. I'm sure I will think of more reasons why I'm happy this season has finally arrived in Austin. Hopefully it sticks around longer than a few weeks.
