Normally fall is my favorite season of the year. This year Mother Nature has been playing games with us with warm “normal” temps one day and cold, brisk winds (and even snow) the next. The first weekend of the pheasant hunting season, she blessed the pheasant hunters, many from out-of-state, with blue skies and sunshine. Meteorologists are predicting a warm winter with less moisture. The Farmer’s Almanac doesn’t agree. I guess we will just have to wait and see. For now, enjoy the season, enjoy your guests, and have a blessed holiday season.

Remember to send in your 2010 BBISD Dues by November 15. See Eileen’s message that is included in the Snoozenews.
