Hello Fall!

Leaves beginning to change!
It's not Portland without a little rain!
The official first day of fall this year was Friday, September 23. Fall is my favorite season and the fact that it always seems so short (especially in Missoula) makes it all the more special. Here in Portland the weather has cooled down, the rain has picked up and leaves are starting to change color and drop to the ground. I always try to notice and appreciate these changes because before we know it Portland will be grey, cold and rainy. So enjoy the fall. Pull out your favorite sweaters, drink some dark beer, look up recipes for stews and casseroles and other rich, dense, food, and buy a pair of wool socks (we are in the Northwest after all, there are unfashionable expectations to uphold). Enjoy the change in season!
