fall in Florida, part 2

The subtle signs of autumn in Florida are beginning to sneak up on us. The water in our swimming pool has cooled down somewhat. The air in the mornings is a tad cooler, or at least it no longer feels like the inside of somebody's mouth as it has all summer. The days are a little shorter. The lawn doesn't need mowing as often. Best news: Hurricane season is coming to a close, but it will be another month before we can pay more attention to the sports guy than the weather guy on the evening news. This isn't like autumn in New England or Michigan or Kentucky, but neither are our winters.

Subtle signs of Autumn? Consider yourself lucky! Ha! We have NO SIGNS here. Heck, I'm still waiting patiently for Summer to show up.

I think I've been stuck in the Fall of 2003 since I moved out here in, well, the Fall of 2003. Nothing ever changes. Freaking San Francisco and it's lack of interesting weather... bah.
