Run

The weather here was - as Shannon said incredulously - "fall-like," with an unseasonably low high temperature and a series of swift, total changes that encompassed glaring sunbursts, torrential downpours, hazy mist, cold drizzle, crystalline sunshine - and that was just the drive home from the grocery store.

I got lucky with my afternoon run, during which I encountered nothing but the cool, partly-sunny conditions which are pretty much ideal for running. Something about the filtered light made the greenery jump out. The oaks, in particular, had a strange and wonderful green-and-silver hue to them...

but everywhere I looked, I saw towering verdant walls.
