*WARNING*

OK, so winter arrived a little faster than I expected. THEY ARE CALLING FOR SNOW ON THANKSGIVING DAY. I can't believe it!

Last week it was fall. The temp was somewhere in the 50's and the leaves were gently falling (all day--it was like it was snowing leaves! It was beautiful.) The ground was covered with great big, colorful leaves. THIS week has been rainy and wet. The leaves have lost their fluffiness and are now wet and compressed. And the snow should start around 11 pm tonight.

I'm looking for the bright spots: we get to experience SNOW with Johnny's parents since they are here for Thanksgiving. Johnny's niece, Chatlie, is also coming from Florida today, and it will be an experience for her as well! AND, it looks like we have an opportunity to try out our new snow gear! We'll consider it a TRIAL-RUN so we can make sure we're ready for the snow season. I'll let you know how we make out. Watch for the "All Things Winter" costs to shoot up! I may have to buy something off of that strange isle in Target. Wish us luck!
