I’m trying out a blogging app on my iPad in advance of a trip to Southern California where I’m going to fellowship with a small group of Christian writers. A retreat without any agenda. nice! I am so blessed to be able to join them again this year. The DH and I both were able to go last year, but this time I must go solo and leave my guy at home to referee Poppet and Pinky and mind the fort. I’ll miss him and am so grateful for the ways he supports me.
I’ve spent most of the day getting organized and packed. I’ve got to work on revisions on the plane and as much as possible while in California. Of course, I don’t expect to get a ton of work done but anything is better than nothing, I say.
When I get home, it will be September already. Cannot believe summer is pretty much past. Kids are back in school. And Southern Idaho is having a serious drought. Irrigation water gets turned off several weeks earlier than normal and we could face rationing on drinking water too. Pray for rain. We are so so dry! And I wouldn’t mind temps in the 70’s instead of the 90’s either.
Are you ready to bid adieu to summer? What’s your favorite season?

I’d much rather have 70 degree temps rather than the 110 we’ve got here in Texas. Right there with you hating the heat, Robin! Have a blessed trip.
My favorite season is winter. If we’re especially blessed, we’ll get some snow. Besides that, I get to use my sweaters, hoodies and coats (again, if especially blessed). Snuggling up with a great book and a cup of hot chocolate… it doesn’t get much better.
