Fall is here!

I love Seattle and surrounding area in the fall.  The days are usually sunny and crisp, and the trees are starting to turn into glorious reds and yellows.  You can almost smell apple cider in the air. It makes you feel like you should be baking and walking in the woods at the same time.

 My lovely daughter has gone back to classes at the local college.  She experienced her first time driving to campus and the quixotic event of parking on a college campus.  Not being able to find a spot in the parking garage, and having to search out a new lot.  Eventually following others until finding herself having to parrallel park on a hill.  Realize she's only had her license for 2 weeks. All was well until she had to go back and find her car.  I got the call of I'm trying to find my car, but dont have any idea where it is. Fortunately she was laughing.  Her car is a classic Saturn Coupe and does not have the alarm pog. So its kind of like going to and amusement park and not remembering where you parked.  Today she headed back to school, giving herself and extra hour of time.  She was well prepared for the parking onslaught, but found it much easier to park.  Ah success, parking with ease, and making it to class on time.
Tomorrow, i head over to dad's to work the quilt.  [ Credit for the word cloud goes to Sweet Sassafras-who was kind of enough to allow me to borrow this]
Have a lovely day.
