Fall is here!

It had rained all night here but due to all the cloud presence, the weather was quite warm. I drove off the parking lot and into the road only to realize what a beautiful sight it was. The road is a two lane road, with trees stacked up on both sides. Some still light green, some yellowish and some showing signs of red and brown giving it an impressive fall coloring. But this isn’t what I found truly impressive. It was that the trees were all lightly drenched with drops falling off as you drove through. The leaves had fallen off during the rain and formed a yellowish brown border to the roads and the center of the road had another band of yellow and brown. The road was kind of semi dry. Dry in the center of the lanes and wet on the sides. As the cars drove past, the leaves whirled around but still stayed somewhat close to the bands of leaves on the road leaving the lanes relatively clean. This image seems stuck in my head as I drive my car twisting and turning with the lanes in slow motion. Ok maybe I am mixing a little imagination with reality.

Something weird happened. I lost my rear license plate. How does one lose their license plate? Apparently, one can, as I found out. It could either have just fallen off, in which case I am not as concerned, but alternately it could have also been stolen. In the case that it was stolen I am flattered (wink, wink) but a little scared that it could be used for some bad purpose that I am not aware of. I have a personalized license plate by the nickname, which the first guy I kissed, used to call me, way back in 6th grade. I was stopped by a cop yesterday who pointed this out to me. He told me to move the front plates to the back. He was rather polite I should add. I stopped by the DMV today to take care of it and they said that I can drive around the same way and gave me a piece of paper that stated that I have ordered for a new plate.

Quote of the day: Every now and then, time seems to slow down, pause for a moment and then start up again. It’s when something like that happens, that you realize how good you have it.
