               Well, autumn is finally here and I'm a happy girl. =~D  The temps have been nice lately, on some days. The weather report has it sitting at the mid 60's with lows in the mid 40's. Do the happy dance, do the happy dance!!   Halloween is just around the corner. Stores are already displaying their goods. The 'fly-by-night' Halloween shops are popping up. Drug stores are loading their shelves with jumbo bags of candies. Yes people, October is, indeed, here. And so is AUTUMN!

   Mmm, autumn. Brings a smile to my face just thinking about it. The smell in the air--distant brush fires and leaves--the sound of SEC football on T.V. and watching the way the sun dances across the fans wearing different colors. The trees around here are starting to change but, for the most part they are still green. Although, I am starting to leaf peep already. The fam is going to NC- to an orchard- to, hopefully, bag some apples. The forecast seems to be great on the day we go--Sunny, the day starting out in the lower 40's, with highs in the lower 70's.--and with the orchard on a big hill it will be breezy, too. Perfect apple picking weather.

If you are interested in playing a fun Garfield halloween game check these sites out. I've played both countless times and both are fun. Recommended ages 10+. Garfield's Scary Scavenger  Hunt 1  & Garfield's Scary Scavenger Hunt 2

A BIG Happy Birthday to my Pop. Who, somehow, is turning 55 today!
