September morn

When I woke up early last Saturday morning I came downstairs and opened all the windows (which we had closed in case Hurricane Earl decided to make a visit). As each one slid opened the most wonderful cool breeze came rushing into the house, filling it with the glory of a September morning. I love this time of the year.

I love the cool mornings and evenings and I like opening my windows at night and pulling the comforter up over my shoulders to sleep. I enjoy the lack of humidity and the breezes that come in over the ocean. There's a very specific "feel" to September mornings and there's no missing it when it arrives. I don't dread the heat of the day and I'm more than pleased when the weather report is in the 60s and 70s instead of the 80s and 90s.

I could tell Saturday morning that September had arrived and it was dark outside when I came downstairs at 6am. The days are getting shorter and we're creeping towards winter now. Summer seemed to go by in a flash this year, full of wonderful memories and treasured moments. Hopefully, September will hold delights of its own - I know that each day will remind me of how lucky I am to be alive.

sersesYes September has a special feel and what is more important its' the first month with a "R" in it. That means oysters and scallops or at least it did in the 60s'.
