For the first time all week, I didn't wake up to the sun peaking through the curtains. It wasn't cold, but there was a grey cloud cover, and a strong breeze. It felt like fall.
There was something calming about the change in weather. I didn't feel obligated to go to the pool or the lake, or to take advantage of the sun, which has been ubiquitous as of late. Instead I curled up with my book and passed much of the day on the couch.
Bill and I had a relaxed morning and afternoon - eating leftovers, reading, working out and then taking a little nap. In the early evening we headed to Truckee to enjoy a cocktail before dinner.
On the way to Truckee we drove by a local car show, and decided to check it out. Shiny sports cars, trucks, and wagons of all colors drove slowly past us as judges announced the winners. I snapped a photo on my phone (I hadn't thought to bring my camera), and then we headed into town.
The sun came back out in the late afternoon before it sank behind the mountains.

ReplyDeleteI guess it must have felt pretty luxurious at the condo after the hike in the mountains! Mani-pedi, ankle socks, cocktail... Even slumming on a couch with a book feels pretty amazing after a week in the back country, right?
