It's November 9th. Yes, November. I had to double check the date today.
I'm sitting in our picture window (studying, of course) basking in the warm sun. I get distracted by a strange sound outsite. A sound we don't normally hear in November. It's our neighbor mowing his yard.
It can't be November?!
Our grass is still green. Our trees hold tight to the remaining leaves of their branches.
All evidence of October is nearly gone.
Pumpkins -- tossed into the compost pile.
Halloween candy -- picked over and just about gone.
Chilly, windy weather -- replaced with this beautiful sunshine.
Our furnace -- OFF.
November?! Doesn't Mother Nature know this is Minnesnowta?
Oh well. I'm not going to remind her. I like this November just the way it is.
FYI: It is 66 degrees and sunny today.
On this day last year, it was only a high of 31.
