Our weather here in Texas was 93 and very dry today. The weather is so creepy these days!

Juju is innocent! We did have a second earthquake around midnight.

Hope everything's okay...I hate hearing about quakes! Oh, keep forgetting why I'm posting stuff...this was to prove that Juju was, indeed, innocent.

Those fire areas are going to be scary with all this rain. I think it must have rained pretty hard sometime in the middle of the night. Everythings soaked here and there is a lot of water in the gutters out front, but I slept like a baby through all of it. Juju there was snow somewhere in the moutains Sunday!

Here comes Wilma... Just when I relaxed and broke into my bottled water supply. Now I have to go buy more.

It's 76 and sunny up here in the frozen northland of Minnesota. What the heck is wrong with Mother Nature this year?

I don't know, Tess, but perhaps we should have a Minnesota meet?

Mother Nature is whipping up too much margarine this year.

Close enough that I'll meet you there, Twigs! After driving to Nashville and back by myself, Wisconsin would be nothing!! Uh, we'll be headed to the east coast (Virginia) next year so we'd better coordinate our trips so we don't pass each other in transit. ack!

Groan, but I hate it being dark so early.. this is not my favorite time of year, for that reason.

I like the extra hour of sleep too but i hate how its gets dark by 6 now. Here in Southern Ontario, it seems that the leaves which are still green and on the trees for the most part, shouldn't be. They should be colored and almost all off the tree by now, shouldn't they? Today after days of cloudy wet cold weather, we are to have sunshine and very mild--61f--temps!! Now I can get some last minute Halloween decorating done, and drag in my patio furniture.

Cablejockey, YES! I am in east central Ohio and I have no idea why we aren't in peak leaf color mode now.
I took this picture earlier this week as the trees were just starting to turn. It's almost like we're 2 weeks late or something.

Same here, Half - we just had our first hard frost the other night so I expect we'll be in flames here soon. On the good side, though - my brother is leaving Iraq today and he thought fall would be gone when he got home. Now he's going to be able to sit out in the fall colors on his back deck, watch his dachshunds play in the leaves and have the joy of raking his very large yard repeatedly in the coming weeks. He's looking forward to it.

GAL, what good news about your brother!! And being a dachshund mom, I just know his little doxies are going to be so excited to see him again and visa versa I'm sure! Since I live in SoCal and see sporadic fall foliage in my area, can you gals take a picture or three as the Flamin' Fall Foliage goes into it's peak? I would absolutely love seeing real time pictures of Fall from your areas!

Halfunit, Goddess, I'm surprised to hear that we are all in the same boat leaf wise. Yes it does feel as if its about 2 weeks behind. Some say its because we had a very dry hot summer here--way beyond normal. You too? It would be fun to see the leaves changing colour in real time. Hope someone can post some pix.

Oddly, Cablejockey, the sugar maples (while running a bit behind too) have been in peak color for about 5 days now. Unreal red. The rest of the trees are either still green or the leaves turned directly brown and fell off. Our cottonwood went from green to brown. I'm worried about it, it is the one that took a direct lightening strike early last year and had to be cabled. I'll see if Colossus can take some pictures with his digital as the leaves finally change. If I tried you'd get a cockeyed shot of some cloudage with a suspicious blur of something that might be a tree. It also might be a finger. PS thanks Coco we'll be mighty relieved to have him home.
