The Changing Seasons

The past few days there has been a noticeable change in the weather outside. It is chilly in the early mornings when I go to my first class, and it doesn't warm up that much by noon any more. Also, the breezy wind from the north that is a constant wintertime feature here has settled in. I suppose it's eminent now: winter is coming. Sure, I know we have to technically get through fall first, but honestly, we all know that it's not possible for the weather to be perfect for longer than a day or two in a row. It will bounce back and forth over that fine line; too hot one day/week and too cold the next. And this is a key part of the changing seasons. Fall and spring are little more than the battle ground of winter and summer. I can almost picture one saying, "It's my turn now. Give it up." and the other saying in return, "No, not yet. I'm having too much fun."

Today's temperature: 65 degrees.
Next weeks' forecast: 85 degrees
