The end of September brought rain (from Tropical Storm Ophelia) and cool weather. I returned from Chicago, the most recent leg of my book tour and spend a whole week with my pups – hiking muddy trails and getting out as much as the quickly fading daylight would let us.
I love fall – the cool weather, the turning leaves. But I hate that the sun is setting earlier each day, that I have to rush home after work to try to sneak in time on the trails. Still, I appreciate every mile and every minute we spend outside. After a blissful week home, I’m heading to Madison and Milwaukee this weekend to round out the month. Then, we’ll be into October and the next tour dates come up fast.
I am, of course, looking forward to the readings, but also looking forward to seeing friends in the cities I’m visiting. If you’re there, I hope you’ll come out to an event, I’d love to see you!
