After a long, hot, humid and seemingly endless summer, fall temperatures and light are a welcome relief.

This past week, I noticed several Monarch butterflies fluttering around their bright orange flowers.

I know some of you think we have had rain of late.

In the first several decades of my life, I was fearless when it came to thunder and lightning.

I’m a big fan of the Weather Channel.

I have an F-150 from the eighties with no air conditioner. It is less than pleasant sitting in traffic.
