Mary,
A little early for cold weather. I guess you have a real winter to finally 
look forward to compared to the past couple of years.
I remember the year we were getting our house ready to sell prior to moving 
to SC. Halloween night we received a nice 12 inches of snow and winds really 
blew it around making for large drifts making the roads impassible for days.
It did the same thing the very day we packed the car and headed to SC. Lots 
of snow and blowing winds. We drove all night through the stuff and had black 
ice all the way through Indiana. 
Now I remember why I like living here.
