Fall Comes to Texas

 


With a week of 70-degree day weather – dropping down to the low 50s at night! 

 


But that was last week. Now we’re back in the mid-to-upper 80s. True, that’s about 10 degrees above average for this time of year down here. Still, the leaves are starting to color, and some are even falling. The sky’s dark at 7:30 and the nights are longer, colder, windier. The grass has stopped growing as nature seems to be rummaging through her closet looking for some heavier, more comfortable, clothes to wear.

 



Me, I’m still in the thick of my Kennedy book. I decided to set Clive Barker aside (and that’s a post for later in the week) and have moved on into more existential horror for the season. For music, I’m currently enjoying the tone poems of Richard Strauss on vinyl, an area I’ve always been aware of but never really dug until now. Timing is everything, even in music, I guess.

 

More posts on the horizon …
