It was entirely too perfect for the first weekend of October to be cloudy (with occasional bursts of sunshine) and crisp- with cool breezes that didn’t feel like you were being chilled to the bone when they hit you, but were just strong enough to give the leaves that were ready to fall off the […]
Every once in a while, I’ll spot something for sale that, at the moment- might not make much sense to buy right then and there- be it the time of year, the weather, etc., but something in the back of my mind tells me that said impulse purchase will most definitely find it’s place and […]
