This morning the temperature was 30 degrees when we set off on our walk so we had to wear a couple of layers of clothing. You don't want to put too much on or else you get hot and have to take something off and then carry it. We started out just as the sun was coming up and the frost looked like diamonds on the ground. There was quite of bit of frost on the roof and the tomato plants took a hit also--actually there was frost just about everywhere.

The fall colors are really starting to appear. This past week the leaves have been changing just about every day and should be at their peak in the next week or so. It seems like most of the leaves are usually gone by the first week of October.

John's back is still stiff and sore, so it's a good thing he heads back to PT Monday morning. Hopefully his therapist will be able to give him some exercises to loosen the muscles or at least tell him what he can do to get some relief. He pulled a muscle or popped something out of place when he was reaching into the car to get his cell phone. He pretty much spent the entire day resting and watching college football. Since we will be here until sometime later in the fall, I dug out some autumn decorations to place around the kitchen and livingroom. I also finally got the rest of my information and email addresses on the new laptop so now I am ready to use it full time. I can see it will take awhile to get use to using the Windows 7 system, but so far I like it.
