What a FANTASTIC day!! Over seventy degrees,

[crim son]

slight breeze, getting paid to mess around in somebody else's garden when messing in the garden is one of my most favoritest pastimes. I wish there were more days like this. I will finish it off with an episode or two of Buffy and a plateful of nachos. Sweet!

[Deja Q]

1. Who ya messin' around with?

[crim son]

3. Nobody! Can you believe it?

I got nobody, and I'm just fine!!!

How are you, Hypno?

[Ptah]

2. Here in the desert we don't have many fall colors.

Please tell mt there are fall colors somewhere.

4. They're coming out here (NJ) She's up in ME, so they've gotta be awesome.

14. could I get a 'spectularly vivid yellows on the hillside'

or 'it was a blush of red that snaked down the creek bed'

[crim son]

17. Not from me! I'm no poet :)

6. There are beautiful fall colors here in Maine.

They arrived quickly and are going to depart at the same pace, sadly. Today there wasn't even any fall "nip" in the air - it was like midsummer but without the bugs

I'm sorry you don't have the colors. But you've got the flowers and the jalapenos, and that's gotta count for something, right?

[Ptah]

15. Sounds like a wonderful day, crim son.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

5. Awesome! I'm glad you had a FANTASTIC day!

You totally deserve it.

[crim son]

7. Thanks, dear one.

I plan to have another one tomorrow, too.

[crim son]

9. Mark me, my friend....

I have no Maine accent. If anything, I've retained a bit of the Canadian. It's important that nobody here imagines me with that accent. I couldn't bear it.

[bridgit]

10. it's lovely here today too...

[crim son]

11. I'm glad. We have to make hay while the sun shines,

because pretty soon our only option will be to make snowmen...

[bridgit]

13. completely agreed, from here i'll need to go into the sierra's...

for snow but there'll be no way around the cold & wet

[EFerrari]

12. We had lovely sun and white fog wafting over the beach

this morning. Beautiful. Good painting light.

I hope we get more of these.

[crim son]

16. Oh, fog is wonderful.

We get it inland here on occasion.
