Happy Sunday all!

It’s a Halloween show and the lineup is standard with Three Skeleton Key and War of the Worlds...

How’s it going?

[WXRGina]

Hi, Vision! How’s it going?

[Vision]

All is well Gina. There was heavy rain for hours this morning then the sun came out and it's been beautiful.

You?

[WXRGina]

I guess you got that front that moved through here earlier this weekend. It’s good to get the rain again.

We’re fine, too. Enjoying the cooler weather.

[Vision]

Are you paying attention to the world series?

[WXRGina]

No, I’m not. I read a headline that the President is going to one of the games, though.

[Vision]

Houston has the momentum to win.

I didn’t, looks like lots of content, thanks. Not a good name for a site though.

[logitech]

Yeah. Dumb name, but the shows are laid out nicely.

[WXRGina]

Cool! Go, Astros!
