I'm here. No rain here in northern Colorado today, lots of thunder and lightning yesterday.

I had today off, so I slept most of the day. Too tired to do anything else.

All good here.

We’re having some fall-like weather with overnight temps in the high 50s and day time in the 70s. Need rain though.

Good evening Canteen Vamp ((HUGS))

Yup, all rested and chores caught up and bills paid.

Boy it’s very dry here. The trees are shedding leaves like crazy. Have to blow the leaves off the patio two times a day. Send rain.

WOW! That’s good drop in temps. Hope you enjoy it.

Our overnight temps are like 58ish. Days mostly in the mid-to-high 70s.
Been wonderful weather. Do need rain.
