September is a month of change that often brings a bittersweet feeling. The sunny days of summer begin to shorten and warm days morph into crisp nights.

In reflection, September was a time of herons and hummingbirds.

As September comes to a close, I feel grateful for the beauty, peace, and memories made in our little corner of the coast.
