Last year the weather in the fall was very warm and mild so we didn't get nearly the vibrant display that a colder October gave us this year. We seemed to alternate between surprisingly cold nights and days that occasionally hit 80. Even now, we have had 3 days in the 70s and one in the 80s in the last week. The color is not for the feint hearted.


John Ballenger came for a week and seemed to be cold the whole time but had a good time anyway. In spite of his reputation for buying real estate when he visits, he bypassed making an offer on this house.
