Hint of Fall

Still green in the foothills
This morning when we stepped outside, the degree of coolness in the breeze hinted at the arrival of Fall.  We've dried out a bit, and the moonsoon flow seems to have either abated or changed path.  The lower humidity feels good, though we can always use the rain.  Several other outdoor enthusiasts were taking advantage of the weather--a guy jogging to the top of the mountain and a young woman who was jogging with her dog on the same trail Becca and I were hiking.
