Marty's Mumblings for October



Well it is now October the leaves are changing and it is trying to cool off but summer still will not let go. We are getting some well need rain early hopefully we can get enough to overcome the drought. This is my favorite time of the year. The weather is changing. It is not too hot.  School is back in session and the kids are in the fall sports mode. Homecoming is happening and football, tennis, Cross Country and golf are full swing. There is the trip to the apple orchard to get fresh apples and the warm sunshine through the car window while driving there. The night chill can be taken care of with a sweatshirt or light jacket. There are the bonfires to enjoy with family and friends.

Something that is new to our family is the Marching Band Competition. Last year my son was in marching band and this year it is my daughter. I cannot believe the fun you can have watching high school kids pouring their hearts into a marching competition. The music is wonderful and shows are always done way too soon. The marching band season goes by fast also. It seems that is all just a breeze. Busy for every weekend for a month then it is all over.

Soon the ghosts, ghouls, witches and goblins will be out. Then we can look forward to the first blanket of fresh snow. It will be time to break out the winter coats and the turkey rosters. Until next time enjoy life to its fullest.
