FALL

                                                     A Poem

The Weather has changed
Fall has fell
The Rain has started
And it's cold as ......

  (anyway, its pretty cold.)

    The rains came last week.  Came with a vengeance.  It was like Mother Nature was tired of all the sunny, dry weather that we have had and was impatient to get back to normal Oregon weather.  The result was lots of rain and temperatures in the 50's and 60's instead of the 80's and 90's.
    Don't get me wrong, we needed the rain.  But I was hoping for a more gradual transition.  Oregon weather has a mind of it's own.

Two Dahlias to remind me of summer.
