Labor Day Weekend Weather

As usually the case, I am spending Labor Day weekend at home instead of trying to fend off crowds at some campground somewhere.

What I will likely do is drive the Jeep in Six Mile Canyon, since it is so handy. We have two and a half months left to be able to drive into Six Mile Canyon before it is closed for the winter on December 15.

The weather is starting to cool down here. It is most noticeable at night, but now the daytime temperatures a cooling a bit as we head towards autumn (September 22).

At least Labor Day weekend will be comfortable.
