A change is coming

Taking a breather on Winchester Mountain
This picture shows the incredible weather we had last Thursday on our Trailblazer hike. And it's been clear and beautiful ever since. Bob took the picture of me, Carol, and Gus and sent it to me by email. This morning we woke to fog, which continued during our five-mile-long Saturday walk. It was cool and delightful as we walked along and caught up with one another, but now it's noon and all the fog is gone. Tomorrow the weather is supposed to change, and it will be cooler with a return of rain by mid-week. I don't mind; it's the most beautiful time of the year to me.

I am going to try a yoga class that was recommended to me this morning: Gentle Yoga with Joani, which sounds really pleasant from all the descriptions I've received. I'll also try a class at 8 Petals Yoga studio in downtown Bellingham. Both places have received rave reviews from friends, and I'm looking forward to telling you more about them once I've sampled them. There's a class at 8 Petals tomorrow (Sunday) at 1:00pm that tempts me. I'll let you know what it's like. It's Iyengar style, as far as I can tell (whatever that is).

    I am as flexible as a brick and need to get back to yoga. I will read about your sam;ing very carefully.
    Love your weather. And hope the gentle rain does fall.

    I'm ready to get out of the 90's, and lose this Hurricane Linda remnants humidity, for sure. Enjoy things cooling down!

    I've had just three lessons of yoga a long time ago and thought it was a good exercise in flexibility and balance. The idea of having cool weather is truly refreshing. We could use it over here.

    I hope you enjoy the yoga. Autumn is beginning to show its colours now with the cooler temperatures and some leaves on the change.

    It's Sunday morning as I am catching up on blog reading, Seahawks on the TV. We took our walk in the drizzle this morning. It will be a cool week. I hope for more sunny days to come, though. I neve like to say goodbye to summer.

    Gentle yoga sounds perfect for anyone past 60. We don't bend like we use to and it should help get that flexibility back. Enjoy and let us know.

    You know, when you have a photo like that on the side of the mountain, with the fall colours coming in, it just makes you feel good inside that we have all this beauty around us. I think the Gentle Yoga sounds good. Have a great day.
