We're finally getting some autumn temperatures now. Though they're still temperatures some places would consider summer, it's now dry enough that the nights are notably cooler than the day, and the daytime highs are under 85F. Leaves are starting to turn, Halloween decorations are everywhere, and hickory nuts are falling.
They fall on the sidewalks and in the parks. When they hit the sidewalk, it's like the thump of a baseball into a catcher's mitt. When they hit a car, a sound like someone is hitting cars with a baseball bat. I'm walking a lot now that the weather permits, and I shudder at the thought one of them should hit me.
