Yeah I totally get what you mean about the weather turning cooler now. We had a stretch of really warm days last week and then suddenly it dropped about fifteen degrees overnight. I ended up digging out sweaters I had already packed away for next month. It feels like the season skipped right over autumn and went straight into late fall. I was thinking about taking a drive up north this weekend to see the leaves but I am not sure if peak color has passed yet. My neighbor said the best time is usually around the second week of October but every year is a little different. I might just head out early Saturday morning and see what I find. If the color is not great I will still enjoy the fresh air. I have been meaning to get outside more because sitting indoors all weekend gets old fast. Let me know if you end up doing anything outdoorsy too.

Oh I finally tried that new bistro on the corner near the library. It is small inside but the patio out back is really nice especially in the late afternoon when the sun hits the brick wall. I had a sandwich with roasted vegetables and a side of those crispy potatoes that everyone talks about. Honestly it lived up to the hype. The service was a little slow but the food came out hot and the portions were generous. I will probably go back again next week to try their grain bowl. My friend said the mushroom soup there is also worth ordering. I have been trying to branch out more with where I eat because I tend to fall into the same rotation of places and then get bored. This spot might become a new regular for me. Let me know if you want to join next time.
