Fall Has Arrived

Leaving work on Monday afternoon we all noticed how chilly it had gotten. Granted, the sun had gone down, but still there was something different. What it was became apparent at about ten that night. Thunder and lightening, wind and rain. It was just wonderful. I sleep right next to the window, which I keep open all the time. I couldn't help but smile. I've been waiting for this for a long time. The air smelled so good this morning; it had been cleaned of the dust. There were still clouds around but there was sun too. It was a beautiful morning but I had my umbrella just in case. Sometime around mid-afternoon the entire scene repeated itself, only this time we added hail and it was daylight so you could watch the front move through. By the time we left you could see the moon. I think the heat is finally past.
