    Default I felt the seasons change today

    The day started off rainy with a humidity of 90% and a temp of 20C.  Now it's 24 and the humidity's 45%.  I was out in the garden earlier planting some snap dragons and forget-me-nots and I felt a cool breeze blow by.  How I love to feel that first sign of autumn.  I sat on the garden bench to take it all in.  The leaves were gently falling, the dogs were playing with the toddlers from down the road, the garden smelled like ginger and honeysuckle.  I'm looking forward to at least 6 months of cool weather and gardening.  What could be better?

    Your season change sounds wonderful. Ours on the other hand is downright disappointing. We had 84 degree weather the other day and now have snow that is actually sticking. Very frustrating! I can't believe my kids were in shorts and now we're wearing winter gear.

    Well I guess that would explain why we went from 80's to snow in a matter of days. We're adapting the Australian seasons!! I must have missed the memo.

    Sounds like a lovely day Rhonda. We are exactly opposite here in Texas, we are in full blown spring, the flowers are blooming everywhere, the birds are singing and the sun is shining like a promise from above.

    Enjoy your day!

    Well Katy, not ALL over Texas. It's very cool and breezy with rain here today. We've been having some gloriously spring days mixed with blustery cold as well. It is nice to know before long it will warm more days than cold.

    Your weather sounds wonderful Rhonda.
