There's a bit of softness in the air around where I live. Clouds abound, now that Autumn's trying to make it's mark. There's still a bit of heat (but not so hot) and the nights are cool, at last. I recall the pleasure (more than six months ago) of removing the heavy Winter blankets from our bed. There was pleasure, sort of equal and opposite, in replacing them a week or so ago.
We've had a bit of rain over the past 10 days - enough to brighten parched lawns and encourage the garden for a few days - but we in South Australia dream of a "proper" season-opening downpour.
Even so, there are nice things about our Autumn. Soft,calm days, gradually greening scenery, and the pleasure (for idlers like ourselves) of staying a little longer in bed on increasingly cool mornings.
As for the rain - "Send her down, Hughie - any time you like!"
