FYI---If anyone has been waiting for NE fall foliage pictures;you will:probably;have to wait until next year!Not only;has it been windy;but yesterday it snowed for 1/2 a day.Good-Bye fall foliage!
Sorry. Irish
P.S.Now;I have to mulch up the leaves,take off my mowing deck,
install my plow blade,install my wts.&chains,and install the lift&
tilt accessories,plus call the co. that paved my driveway&sidewalk
& make sure that the chains;won't damage the pavement.Also;
get out my snowblower;so that my dog won't have snow in his run&up his ass;when he wants to squat!

You know you're from Ontario when.......
I normally don’t spend time telling somebody else’s story but this seemed the perfect place to post a note I received from a fiend. The best part of it is that not one of these will make sense to an Aussie except maybe #2,

I’m posting about the only spot of actual color this year. Most of the trees around here seem to just be turning brown but late in dropping their leaves. Folk lore says the later the leaves fall, the colder the winter will be. (gees- I hope that’s only folk lore)

LOL PF!
Fall Signs in the Ozarks:
1) the smell of fresh oil on the dirt road past your house
2) There are almost as many dead squirrels on the road as leaves
3) Walmart starts running out of "House Wrap", "Shrink Wrap" and "Glad Wrap" 'cause everybody is sealing their windows.
4) The answer to "Honey, where's the Blow-dryer?" is "Warming the car"
5) The morning fog had encased everything in a 1/2in coat of ice.
6) Coat and gloves in the morning, shorts and t-shirt by afternoon.
7) The dogs want to stay in and the cats want to stay out.
8) The farmers start painting "COW" on their livestock in preparation for the city-slickers' weekend hunting trips.
9) everybody is stocking up on firewood, generator fuel, water, and beer.
10) It no longer takes an hour to drive 15 mi, 'cause all the tourists have gone home.

Today - although sunny - we had stormy winds and it will be still stronger tomorrow. No doubt, that´s fall.
