It feels like a humid 90° in October.  Most of the trees are still green, and flowers are going strong.  The forecast says mid-week temps will suddenly drop like a roller coaster to 60s/40s, with no gradual transition.  So this is Fall in Tennessee.  Huh.  On the plus side, winter here is almost balmy compared to the north, so there is that.

Here are yet more flowers, cat selfies, some yummy cookies by E, and the only fall leaves to be found in our yard, and they started turning in summer.

I’m purposely not commenting on the travesty that is our current repug government, it’s just too distressing. It’s easy to just get resigned and hopeless, but make sure you vote these fools out, is all I can say.
