Fall…
Where the heck did the summer go? Before I knew it, fall struck hard and fast!
It feels like winter. Even my car says so…I had to scrap off my windows for the second time this year! The news people are already hinting at snow. *brrr* A windy weekend tore down all the colorful leaves (which we only had for a few days), leaving the trees with just a few scraggly green leaves left.
