You did remember to set your clocks back one hour, right ?? Right?? What a gorgeous day it was yesterday as October is ready to say goodbye. Tuesday some areas could see 84-85 for a high if the weatherman is right! Are you burning wood yet? Not here. The Merced River Canyon is beautiful this time of year as trees turn color, the water moving slower lets you see the trout in the clear water, and the temps are far away from that 100 degree mark. Pack a basket and enjoy the canyon almost to yourself ! |
