It is getting nice and cooler, actual weather?!?  But it is the Fall, sort of and it actually feels like it!  I do like this weather simply because it is cooler!  Anything but Summer is great and I welcome it with both arms open!  But I know a heat wave is due at some point and it will mess up the vibe.  If only we had seasons, it would be like ... normal? But, we are also So Cali and nothing is really normal around here.  I wonder if I should get a pumpkin for Halloween this year ... probably not but I am going to start a new tradition and get at least a pumpkin pie!  Why not and have a slice on Halloween or something ... who knows about that part but will get a pie every October.

Weekly Update:
Spent the day with a lot of German Shepherds on Sunday.  Annual picnic for German Shepherd Safe Haven Rescue for alumni families who have fostered and or adopted.  Must have been over 20 dogs and all were nice to each other and happy to see more people for petting and scratches.  Bunch of great dogs and looks like everyone had fun.  The theme this year was a Hawaiian Luau and it was fun.  Weather was good but slightly warm in the sun but not bad overall.

At the movies:
Marvel dominates once again at the box office as Venom earns a hefty 80 million for its debut.  Above expectation and though it may sound low for a Marvel in general, this is also off-season.  New at #2 is A Star is Born with 41.3 mil and rave reviews.  This one has award season all over it and sure to get several nominations.  Word-of-mouth is strong on this film so it should have decent legs for awhile.  Drop down to #3 is "Smallfoot" with 14.9 mil as it slowly melts away.  Bigger drop to #4 is "Night School" with 12.3 mil and class may be ending early.  Rounding off the top 5 is "The House with a Clock in its Walls" with 7.3 mil and time is just about out for it.
