Indian Summer?

An Indian summer is a meteorological phenomenon that occurs in autumn, in the Northern Hemisphere. It is characterized by a period of sunny, warm weather, after the leaves have turned following an onset of frost, but before the first snowfall.

So today the tides have turned a bit.  The sun is fighting its way out and the long term forecast isn't bad at all.  In the 20's for the weekend if the weather man is correct.  We went for a walk around the neighborhood and it's nice to walk through the fallen leaves as they crunch under your feet.  September can be one of my favorite months when the sky is blue and the sun is out.

In order to have a true Indian summer there needs to have been a killing frost.  Well, I would say we had that.  Lots of our plants and flowers got cooked, even ones under our front porch area which is usually more protected.  Well I am not ready for snow balls yet, so bring on the Indian Summer!
