So, here we are in October!

The weather is changing quickly in upstate NY. The beautiful leaves have mostly fallen to the ground and there is a chill in the air. Our beautiful CSA share ends this month. I’m going to miss going to our local farm and harvesting fresh veggies and wild flowers.

I have taken up watercolor for a new hobby. I love that it feeds my creativity and keeps me busy while I’m cooped up. It’s portable enough that I can take small canvases to the beach or on the boat. My last art class was in the 8th grade…so this is kind of a big deal 🙂

I realized the other day that we are beginning our fifth year of urban living. There have been some real rewards to downsizing as well as some frustrations. I hope to post soon with an update on the experience.
