Late Summer Heat!

 Triple digits are in the forecast but mornings remain cool. It's 60 F this morning but it might get to the mid-nineties and triple digits soon. Our altitude, around 1000 meters above sea level, and our dry air make for thirty to 40 degree temperature swings, from morning low to daytime high, especially at this time of year. But change is in the air. 










Tomorrow I'll start "time traveling" again. I look forward to that. And NOT into the future. The future is a catastrophe, a lost cause. I don't give a bloody goddamn for the future. No, my journals make it possible to relive bits of the past.

Cool Mornings Hot Days

 Yes, or so the forecast has it-- cool mornings and hot days. We actually had a rather nice shower yesterday afternoon, along with a cooling breeze. That was welcome!










There is little to report, or comment upon. SOSO, and that's OK with me.

Terrific Morning!

 But our rain chances evaporated into nothing. I knew that would happen. By next week the heat will return but mornings should stay on the cool side. That's normal for early September. At least I'll have mornings outside or in the garage. I like being in the garage, surrounded by projects past and present and future. There's something about the presence of tools...

Nice Morning!

 Nice temps, cloud cover, rain chances-- this could go on for a couple of days. Heat relief is welcome.










Google blogs are being plagued by bad bots from Singapore, and mine is no exception. Nuke Singapore?

A Welcome Change Of Weather!

 Oh, yes, it is overdue, but it is welcome! Much cooler mornings, warm days rather than hot, and rain chances that look pretty good. And after that it's back to triple digits. But we are riding that seasonal wave, now, that transition thing, from summer to winter. I like the transition zones anyway. With any luck we'll have a crisp October, my favorite month, and Halloween is something I look forward to. It's the ONLY "holiday" that has any meaning at all to me. Fuck all the rest, and that definitely includes christmas and easter. I despise those holidays as much as the July 4th idiocy. 










I look forward to Fall, all the other seasons are a bummer in one way or another.
