Even if this means it suddenly turns jolly cold (as it has done this week), it is better than predictable weather it seems.

We realize how fortunate we are and appreciate every minute. <br /><br />Autumn is not my favorite season - by a long shot - but I do like the canning, jam making, gathering, freezing vegetables and preparing for winter with all the hearty foods of summer.<br /><br />Even when we lived in California we had a definite change of seasons and enjoyed them each.

I certainly would not enjoy the weather in Canada, as I do not like the extremes in it. I would also not enjoy being eaten alive by mosquitoes. I think the weather in the Netherlands is perfect right now and I am out there as much as I can.

We are certainly getting more 'interesting' weather lately. Somewhere in Cornwall had a huge hail storm the other day making it look as if 2 or 3 inches of snow had fallen.<br />I was cold in bed last night and the heavier quilt is going on tonight.<br />Sadly I missed Nigel Kennedy but did see part of the Proms programme. He is a true eccentric and such a talented musician with a great sense of humour.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-10221608672054733932013-09-08T06:45:16.341-07:002013-09-08T06:45:16.341-07:00Welcome Autumn ~ and Nigel :)Welcome Autumn ~ and Nigel :)Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507537074005136610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-56466422206369843302013-09-08T05:57:47.897-07:002013-09-08T05:57:47.897-07:00I love autumn, even though it means that winter...I love autumn, even though it means that winter's on the way.
