Morning Walk

Up for our early morning walk as usual. Awoke to thermometer registering 49 degrees. Seems a bit cool for the 2nd of Sept., but as this is our first Sept. as residents of Colorado, I guess we will learn soon enough what is normal and what is not.

Put on our jackets, Peter tied on his weights, and I grabbed the cold water bottle. Heading north on our usual route, the wind was fierce. We estimated it was about 30+ mph with gusts up to 40+. May be exaggerating a tad, but I think not. It was hard heading up hill and into the wind. But we completed our lap and returned home with thoughts of hot chocolate and maybe hot cereal for breakfast. But alas I was too tired to make the hot cereal, so I opted for a comfortable chair and my cup of hot chocolate.

Is this the start of fall already?

By mid afternoon, the temps have reached 70 and it is quite pleasant. That's how Colorado is....big swings in the temperatures. Usually quite cool for sleeping.
