Now THIS IS FALL.
It's been so dang nice up here I only have three loads of wood hauled and gave up on trying to go out and split it because it's too nice outside.
I know I just jinxed myself  :doh2:  here it comes...below freezing temps

I thought you were going to post a picture of a deer. I should have known better.

Dont jinx me. It's been a while since I smeared one of them sunzabitches with my truck.
I drive 14 miles to work. Deer season opens next weekend and there's already 11 smucked deer along the road on the way.
edit..14 miles

We no longer have much of a deer/car crash problem. A month ago we were at 630 confirmed deer deaths and were the highest in the state. Since then there have been many more. Highest in the state, but probably because we have, make that had, a high population of deer and the summer was VERY dry.

After reading the title of this thread I thought you were inviting a bunch of illegal Mexicans to your house for Christmas dinner :innocentwhistle:  :biggrin:

Hope you have a good winter.

We had our first frost of the year on our car windshield yesterday.  We've been getting fresh snow on our nearby mountains for a couple of weeks but Nov. 15 is very late for the first frost down here near the salt water.  I picked a few handfuls of blueberries off the bush this morning.  Not sure why but three bushes still have loads of blue berries.
