The weekend has been simply stunning here... I spent about three hours outside yesterday late morning into afternoon doing what I hoped would be the final work on my yard for the year... sucking leaves, mowing, trimming etc. Now why I'd think this is the last of it when the large Ash tree in my front yard still has nearly all it's beautiful orange and yellow leaves is beyond me. My heat has barely been kicking in and I had the front door open for most of the afternoon yesterday too. I was also driving about with my windows down...it's strange for some reason after those dreary days it always seems like spring when it gets sunny again It's supposed to be beautiful again today, and looks it so far... but we are bracing for a Blue Norther that's going to start encrouching on the south tonight. I'm tempted to throw on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and back my car into the drive and give it a good washing
