Well it may not quite be mists and mellow fruitfulness time just yet, but today marked that magic day late in summer when you first notice how much the light has changed already. Mmmmmm.

By the way, it was such a glorious morning that when I took the five year old out for breakfast, not only did I put the top down on the ol' jeep, I also let her wear my John Lennon granny-specs against the sun. She thought she was the coolest thing on the planet, and judging by the looks we got from some of the cars around us, she certainly made quite a splash. We had a blast, too, only clouded at the very end when, while gesticulating wildly about something or other, the gel managed to slap the glasses right off her own face and out the side of the car. Fortunately, this happened just short of the driveway, so I was able to retrieve them with no trouble.
