Deeper Into Fall

I've got to leave for work in 15 minutes, but I couldn't resist a quick word on the blog. October has really set into the Midwest. The leaves have evolved into beautiful red and golden shaded colors gracing the treetops, yards, and roadsides. Piles are everywhere. The air is cooler by the day, and the degrees are dropping like dead flies. It's hard to imagine that only a couple of weeks ago shorts and t-shirts were adequate, but now scarves, coats, and long pants are necessary. The Weather Channel has been broadcasting snow in the northern parts of New York, Vermont, and Maine. That means that snow season is drawing closer and closer to Chicagoland. I can't wait!
