Early Signs of Fall are in the Air

It seems like it was just summer... and this summer was memorable in more ways than one. We started it off in June with a cross country road trip to the great Pacific west coast. We drove to Oregon and back and saw some remarkable things - including the woodchipper in Fargo, North Dakota. In July we had six weeks of remodeling and renovation disruption. We decided it was time to redo the bathroom and are so happy with the end result. Luckily we had another unit across the hall to retreat to during the mess. Last month my 94 year old mom fell and broke her hip which necessitated an emergency trip to Florida, surgery, and rehab. A week or so after we left Florida, the horrible hurricane Irma was heading to the Tampa Bay Area. My mother needed to be evacuated from one rehab to another. Luckily she survived the disaster, her house didn't get damaged, and she should be back at the old rehab today, and hopefully home soon. So the last time we walked through the Botanic garden, the flowers and leaves were changing from summer to fall. Where does the time go? I think we have all heard that question before.
