Yesterday’s rain gave way to a beautiful, sunny Autumn
Sunday.  

View from the front porch on a beautiful October Sunday.

Based on my unofficial Texas birdbath rain guage, it looks like we got
almost two inches yesterday.

Although my frustration regarding the fact
that the Dallas Cowboys, for yet another week, will not
be on TV in the New York City market is foremost in my
mind today, there is plenty to do before the Jets and
Giants play.  (By the way, next season I will be adding
DirectTV and Sunday Ticket in the rec room downstairs
to alleviate this aggravation every single weekend.)

My Halloween Chili Project.

Last night I got Roseanna’s bedroom ready for her visit
three weekend from now.   Haven’t figured out Granny’s
accommodations yet but it’s a big house – there’s plenty
of room and beds.

I leave out early in the morning for my Amtrak ride to
Washington DC.
