We have sometimes wondered whether we have slipped from early summer directly into early fall. Other than one uncomfortably warm week, temperatures have been strangely mild. One morning the low temperature was 11.5 C and this morning’s low has been about 13.5 (I haven’t checked the thermometer yet).
We do not complain though. Memories of summers past, particularly summer in Texas, help us be grateful for this mild summer. I think that we are generally appreciative of our climate, no matter what is going on. Though we may sometimes grumble and not like it, we cannot change it. It’s better to, at minimum, accept what we cannot change.
I sometimes call Texas ‘the land of hot and not as hot.’
