I have noticing many Facebook posts from friends in Alaska about Fall. The pictures are still gorgeous. I have to say I miss the colors of September and October in Alaska. Vibrant colors with crisp tones of white on the mountain tops. Even if it is short lived.
The trees are for the most part still green here. The temperatures are now in the 80s and a nice breeze is noticeable every day.
We spent the weekend still working on making this house our home. More pictures went up on the walls, we finished the downstairs bathroom, and little things like switches were changed to alleviate Chris's obsession an up switch means lights are on....
We ran.
And we engaged ourselves outside for our first fundraiser in the area. "Eggs on the Beach" show cased Cookers and Chefs as well as just home cooks to benefit "Fisher House". The outdoor event included all types of smart grilling from pulled pork, burgers to Apple pie and Pizza. We ate way too much but had a great time cruising through the booths of sponsors and clubs making the play for tickets. The most tickets obtained from the tasters would win and a large proceed would go to their charity of choice. (at least that was my understanding). My favorites were the pizza, the duck, and of course the prosciutto wrapped shrimp.
The sun was out, the temperature was excellent, and clouds were few.
Today, it is raining.
