The “non-resident” geese around here are starting to flock up - I’ve noticed a couple of decent sized flocks recently, just haven’t paid attention to which way they were headed.

Today was supposed to be ‘fallish’ with temps 79-82 through next Tuesday (then upper 80’s end of week).... I’m a bit disappointed because it’s not the crispy, gorgeous air I associate with fall. The humidity is definitely much better today - it’s been a tropical ‘soup’ the last couple of weeks & with temps in the 90’s, we’ve had heat indexes over 100 (as high as 110-112). The garden has actually done rather well because we’ve had good rains all year/summer (too much, almost). Last week, we had thunderstorms dumping an inch of rain each night on two nights & another big one dumped two inches on a third night! The grass needs cutting every 4-5 days .... if you can find a time slot where it’s gotten dry enough to mow (and you don’t hear thunder!).

We’ve had some hot days. I was driving east, maybe slightly north-east and they were headed south, perhaps slightly southwest.

IIRC, the point in the road is due east so they will would have been going south-southwest.

It just really surprised me. Maybe they were from Canada and just passing thru. :)

I didn’t happen to notice their accents!
