That is waaaaay too early!! Looks like your temps are very similar to ours. Onlly we are only down to the mid-60s right now.

That's good. Yesterday, a local sports anchor did the "piano desk", so I sent her this:

Don Cherry's Piano Desk

Howdy night owl. Definitely feels like fall today. Not a lot of color changing yet.

Good evening real saxophonist ((HUGS))
We were in the 40s this morning.
Day temps around 65.

[real saxophonist]

Yeah, we're already doing Christmas stuff, even though Halloween isn't here yet.

I'm glad to be putting stuff on the shelf, rather than dealing with the idiots in the check lane.
