(oh) What a beautiful day. This morning was perfect, in every way, and when I went for a run, I was so happy to be out doing just what I was doing and seeing just what I was seeing that I nearly cried. The sky was this perfect September blue, the trees were still green, the morning light was clear and the air was fresh, and even though I’m sore and tired now, that feeling this morning makes it okay. Better than okay.
That paragraph makes me sound ecstatically happy. I’m too tired to be ecstatically happy. I’m worn out happy. With a dehydration (I think) headache. John and I went to Waterford this afternoon for the Waterford Fair. Happens every year, but we keep forgetting about it, so this is the first year we’ve gone. They’ve got tours of historic homes, LOTS of exhibits and vendors selling all kinds of crafts, live music, and lots of food. A couple of residents are selling their homes, so they took advantage of the crowds to hold open houses. NICE houses. And they’ve come down in price; both of the houses John and I looked at were only $695,000.
Tangent:
John Scalzi is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors, both for his novels and his blog. Check out his latest post. The idea came from the two previous posts.
Back to the fair. But really only for pictures (all taken by John, used with permission 🙂 ).
Anyway, the fair was fun, but Waterford has some major hills (okay, one major hill), and we got a little too much sun, and we’re both very tired. Tomorrow will probably be more restful.

Just one comment: it’s October, not September, but oh so beautiful.

It may be October, but the color of the sky was September blue.
