Fall

The days are getting shorter, the mornings crisper, and the leaves redder. It's definitely fall in Vancouver, and while I'm sure it's not, it feels way earlier than it should.

I've started wearing tshirts or even long-sleeved shirts on my runs, and I almost want to wear a toque on my way to work (except that I feel dorky, since it's still September!). Maybe tomorrow..

I'm not really ready for it to be fall.. I don't enjoy getting up before the sun, or going to bed three hours after the sun has set again.

To look on the bright side, fall is a great time to take photos. We're having Thanksgiving dinner with friends this weekend, with family the weekend after that, and then I get to fly away to visit my best friend and her sister, who is basically my almost-sister. And then, the month will be half over. Crazy!

I really like having a camera that's always with me and takes good enough photos.

Happy (basically) October!

Insta-update

It's been a while since I've blogged. I don't really have any desire to update with a long post, since I am most definitely not a writer. However, some photos that I've taken are kind of cool, so.. that's what's going up.

Home made blueberry pies and tea at R's grandparents.

That's a quick life update. I'll try and post some photos from our long hike this summer sometime, too.
