Yes…Fall is here and it is raining in Raleigh, North Carolina.

For most of the day, the weather was fine.  It was windy and cloudy, but very pleasant!

But as night approached, the sky opened up and the rain came down.

There was a group of people arriving for the Gala who decided to walk about 5 blocks for dinner.  The 12 of us had good food, good service, and excellent conversations.  When it was time to return home, it was pouring!  Oh well!!!  We had lots of laughs!

It seems Clay Aiken was at the book store on Thursday.  Was he buying a good book or just doing some research?  Whatever, it is nice to see new pictures of Clay.
