It's sure not gonna win any prizes.

But it sorta looks like autumn. In a way.

Meanwhile the only sure way to tell what season it is is that the public works department is tearing up the streets. What makes them want to do that every year, right before winter sets in?

And it isn't just the local guys either. The state has been working on the overpass out by the highway since last winter and now they say they'll be finished by Thanksgiving. Oh, right. Way to rub it in. The last time I heard a contractor say that it took until Easter. So if you think I'm holding my breath, think again.
