Fall Colors

We are starting to enjoy the reward for enduring a long hot summer. Six months of temperatures ranging from 50-70 degrees with some rain and blue skies! Incidentally, we had a rainstorm two weeks ago, the first since February. Many of our flowers are starting to bloom again as they soak up the rain and come out of hibernation from the hot summer sun. This was new for us...we thought we had just killed them (we are still figuring out the gardening thing).

A few fun fall Bakersfield features:
1. palm trees are always green so instead we just watch the grass and brush in the fields change colors in the fall. 
2. Jacket weather is 60-75 degrees. Full on winter coats, gloves, and scarfs are come out below 60. 
3. Brad is too wimpy to ride his Harley 2-miles to work when it drops below 60 degrees.

Wow...you guys are woosey...he he he. When it's 60 out here, then we wear shorts outside. Thanks for offering to buy something for our little one, but I really don't know what I need yet...and probably won't till she is born. I have my baby shower Thanksgiving weekend and then I will know more of what I need...I think.
XOXO-Erin
