October 2nd: Today we were in Coalinga, again. This time, we shopped the Tractor Supply store; we both needed things we felt sure we could find in that particular store.
There was a Fall display at the front entrance … and I promptly placed a potted Chrysanthemum plant in the basket 😊 It's a perennial, so it can be clipped back, hauled from pillar to post along our road gypsy routes - and brought back to full bloom again the next year. I already know where I can stash it between seasons 😉
Inside the store, I saw several things that had me laughing as I passed by them:

Then, over to the Save Mart grocery store to grab some Coca-Cola 8 packs & bread; before hopping across town to get a chicken quesadilla.
While waiting for the order to be processed, I noticed a couple spider webs adorning the curbside bush - these are new; they weren't there yesterday.
Wispy spiderwebs - harbingers of Fall's arrival.

After we finished our quesadillas, we drove an exploratory loop drive …

Thick gray clouds, heavy with rain, will be over Independence by the time we arrive back home …

Back home, groceries were put away - the fly swatters & fly strip put up; the Chrysanthemum was kept indoors until I can buy a pot to put it in that will keep it from being blown over, outside:

The Chrysanthemum placed in a kitchen corner, for now.
I relaxed by indulging in self-care activities …
