Chamber of Commerce

Weather in Houston in October is what I like to call "Chamber of Commerce" weather. If you want someone to move to Houston - bring them down in October or March, especially if said someone is already getting frosty nights in the great white North.

Well, today is October 1, and the weather came just in time. There is not a cloud in the sky. Morning and evening temps in the 70s with the high topping out around 85. Given that temps hit 100 degrees a week ago, this is much appreciated relief!

Besides making my runs feel slightly easier, I am thrilled to be able to run with my best girl, my chocolate lab, Indy, again ... and the feeling is mutual! She loved every moment of our 8 miles this morning - as did I!

Happy October!

Our leaves in Missouri are becoming the stuff of C-o-C brochures and never mind the chilly nights (40s this morning for my 5k), the bright blue skies and sun makes a high of 50-60 seem just fine. Glad you are finally getting a break from that crazy heat though.

I'm so happy to hear that fall is headed your way. It's just too hot down there! Enjoy!
