The autumnal equinox is actually day after tomorrow but Sunday really felt like fall. Cool and sunny. About 5-10 degrees below normal for Durham but about average for NYC around this time of year. That's what it reminded me of. Early Sept. in NYC there's often a last gasp bounce of stoopid heat 'n humidity. Then, just about this time, just about every year, there's a weekend when the weather turns. Bang like that. And right around the time fall arrives there's NY is Book Country, a big street fair/book festival. Days like yesterday always remind me of getting the sweaters outta storage and walking around Manhattan feelin' all artsy and literary and shit. The kind of day where I just wanna buy the NYTimes and lie around all day and read and do nothing else. No matter what city I'm in. I did get the buying the Times part done yesterday but only got around to reading it a bit yesterday afternoon and then some more tonight. But it was a really good day full of gardening, shopping, and rockin' out.
So what's not to love...
