I never liked Falls.. evertime I fall, I break something.. - Actually, it's summer and fall here in central Arizona, cool in the mornings and nights, and warm in the afternoon, plus daylight hours are getting shorter. We've also seen a few days with cool temperatures under 100 degrees.. I think it was 99.9 degrees yesterday...... Signs of Fall/Autumn are definitely in the mountains of Arizona though.
