The cold weather is starting to roll in around here, indicating mother nature noticed the calendar turning to November. I don't think we've actually had our first frost yet, but I see 31 °F in the forecast for tonight, so that may change soon. No complaints here, though, New York is pretty notoriously a two season area, with winter and summer running right into each other, but we've had a couple of months of genuine autumn this year, which is nice.
