LOVE this time of year!  All the windows in the house are open, basking in the 70F dry air.
   
Japanese red maples already changing into fall plumage.

And I start thinking about throwing a couple bales of hay into the truck, add a blanket, find a field, and spend time with a lady then snuggle just looking at the stars.
Can rent a truck, own a blanket, buy some hay, check here for a lady, but how do you find a field?!?  A field where the owner won't mind you parking, the cops won't harass you, and there's minimal risk of paparazzi or security cameras?  Growing up they were all over the place, but in a farming community you knew where to go - things are different around Raleigh.

Add into that my travel schedule, the weather, and logistically that explains why it's still a fantasy.  The whole "having a job" thing really interferes with my hobbies!
