Fall is certainly here. Winter has arrive in the northern part of the state with accumulating snow. I was supposed to be wilderness canoeing up there for the next four days, starting today, but we canceled when we found out that the weather was supposed to be quite wintery. Cold and blustery here today, but no snow at least. It was nearly 80 degrees F yesterday. We could just crack with the big temperature change...grin.
Nice! Looks like Fall is here for you!
