I'm not that sad though.....I do love this time of year. The leaves are changing colors....those deep orange and red colors that make the landscape appear purposely flecked with color.....FOOTBALL can only be played when it's cold and a hot cup of cocoa or coffee is in order.....Halloween candy appears in all the stores......and the weather is cold, crisp, and rainy......at least in the Pacific Northwest.
I do love this time of year! Baseball season is coming to a close, and that is somewhat bittersweet. It seems forever until Spring Training.....
It will seem wierd when we get to Las Vegas and there isn't the obvious color changes that indicate there is a change in seasons. Seattle is the longest place I've lived since I was a kid in So. California, and taking the greenness and obvious changing of the seasons for granted is easy to do. I know I will be miss it, and somewhere down the line with comment about it. I will, of course, get "that look" from Walt that indicates he's reminding me that "this is what you wanted."
It is what I want, but it is worth noting that I will miss the changing of the seasons. Nevada has very subtle changes, and the low temps will be the average temps we enjoy during the summer. (60's) However, the CONSTANT sunshine won't be a tough one to get used to. Feeling the sun on my face, even on crisp cold mornings, is amazing......and it doesn't happen all that often here. Not to rub it in, but it'll happen a whole lot more in Vegas, and I will be loving it.
