Almost autumn

Helmecki didn't want to admit it yesterday, but it really feels undeniably like early autumn today. Bright, a little bit cool, clear. A lot like the early fall weather we had on our wedding day.

Tim was up because I got pretty good tickets to yesterday's Red Sox games against the Mariners. Good game; kind of a nail-biter at the end. I was secretly kind of excited to see Ichiro, but he wasn't in for most of the game; just one at bat at the end, which was probably better for the outcome of the game, where we really just squeaked by. It was a good day to go to the ball park, too; nice sunny, big puffy clouds at first turning into solid blue, and hotter than today.

We were planning on doing something outside today since it's so nice, and Katherine called up and asked if we wanted to go to a nature preserve that she found when she was on the way to our wedding reception in Topsfield after she left the church. Which sounded perfect. She should be here soon, so I'm going to finish this up and put on some shoes.
