a quick catch-up

we've been apple picking out at montauk, and visiting with my cousin who came in from arizona. we've been baking apple pies and apple crumble, going to dance classes and working on math, grammar, languages, poetry, etc. i've been working a few days out of the week at a friend's restaurant which has cut into a lot of computer time. i'm hoping that will stop soon, and i'll be able to catch up better. we get cool days, and then it turns humid again, like today. our weather is changing. i feel like it's becoming more tropical . . more and more humid, like florida. all of us like crisp, autumn air! the humid days take getting used to.
