I love this time of year because I love having the windows open.

I’ve been temporarily relocated to my boyfriends house because my house is being remodeled. (See the work in progrss on my blog below.) He lives at 67th Ave and Happy Valley, from from my corner of the world at 16th St and Glendale. He’s got a security door on the front door and a slider with a screen on the back door, so the house gets great cross ventilation. With the kitchen, bedroom and living room windows open it’s great!

The noises at my house are cars on the street, the ocassional siren or horn honking and my upstairs neighbors. Mostly city sounds. Out here, the noises are different. School children on the way to and from the school bus. Dogs barking and garage doors opening and closing. I work from home, so I listen to the noises all day long. I love hearing the children.

This is my favorite time of year in Phoenix, althought I’d kill for 10-15 degrees cooler in the day time. The sun is bright and the air just feels crisp. I want to wear my sweaters. But I’ll overheat — must wait another couple of weeks for sweaters. But this is a great start!

Happy fall y’all!
