Thank you!

After reading your post I went looking for our temperatures. It’s 74º! Had a squall come through maybe an hour ago. It was brief, 10 or 15 minutes but caused som significant damages mostly falling trees. We just got a messier yard.

The temperature here has dropped. It’s now 64 degrees!

[humblegunner]

75º here in the thriving metropolis of Huffman.

Had two days of monsoon hell yesterday and the day before.
Limbs down and yard flooded, ditches still full and flowing.

Like I told The Old Lady earlier.. my roof is fine.
Trouble is the dang water coming out of the sky.

The nation is getting a wake-up call. Bombs and gun battles in the streets. No, Mr. Obama, America is not safer than ever. You LIE!!

Secure the borders!! Get a handle on who you allow into the country!! Quit allowing these people in!! Duh, they are at war with us!!

And quit trying to take our guns!! We need them now more than ever!!

And FR is needed now more than ever!! The defense of Liberty starts at home. Never ever give up your guns!!

Please keep those donations coming in folks. FR is funded solely by the freedom loving folks who love and use it. No advertisers. No sugar daddies. No corporate string pullers. No government subsidies. FR is fiercely independent and we aim to remain that way.

Thank you all very much.

God bless America!!

Now that’s a storm! Ours was so small I could see both sides of it and it rained like Niagara.

[TheOldLady]

It’s breezy with broken clouds here.

The clouds are “movin’ right along” up high, but the wind is not severe near the ground, less than 4 mph.

The trees have turned from green to golden yellow in the past two or three days, and they are dropping leaves on the grass apace.

We don’t rake or burn. Bryan mulches them with the lawn tractor, which adds food for the grass and helps the lawn to winter over with its coming blanky of snow.

[trisham]

Mr. T uses the tractor to blow the leaves into the woods surrounding the yard.

[humblegunner]

That's why my pic-a-nic table is up on blocks.
Keeps the foots out of the muck.

Tomorrow's parade is supposed to have mild temperatures, too, and not so grimy. Then it plummets into the 40’s for Sunday highs. Our weather is always weird.

Our mower has two large bags that collect leaves and that’s about all we do. Soil is wicked acid and most of our treees are oaks.

Do you live along a river or some such?
