After an absolutely gorgeous September and early October here in the New York area, which included lots of beautiful warm evenings and thus an extended pool season, the temperatures are dropping and I find myself trying to harbor the last vestiges of summer as I paddle into the pool in my wetsuit --- and I am plucking leaves from the top of the water where they are spread like a carpet. It’s been a really nice ride being outside since early June. It’s just about time to move my favorite reading space back inside. That’s the one nice thing about reading --- you can move your book to a new comfy place and pick up where you left off!
