Season change -- BANG!

Weekend before last was Thanksgiving in Canada. My memories of his holiday are fresh, crisp air, fallen leaves, and a walk in the woods wearing a warm jacket.

This year and last? A walk in the woods, wearing shorts and a tank top, sweating. Okay, this year it wasn't HOT, but it was warm. Probably in the low seventies in that adorably antiquated Fahrenheit system you Americans still cling to. ;-)

Ten days later? WOW. Gloomy and windy and they forecasted 8 degrees (mid forties?) rain, mixed with wet snow for this afternoon!!!! Really?

Haven't seen any evidence of the white stuff yet, but that's too fast for me.

Mother Nature. Slow down. No wonder I had a killer sinus headache yesterday.

Well, it's still warm down here. Low 80s today. Ha!

Sigh. It did snow a little yesterday. Barely. But it did. Feels like we sent straight from summer to winter. But the cold temps last night did seem to jolt the maple I can see out my office window into turning bright orange and red, almost over night. Pretty.

Exactly how Emeril would describe it :) Stay warm.
