This first week of November has been particularly warm around here. The thermometer in my car read 70 degrees as I was driving home from work. We’re also on track to break the record for the longest growing season in our area for the past 140+ years. I know it won’t last, and we’re predicted to have a much snowier winter than normal.

It does mean that we have a nice weekend on tap. There will be some running, and maybe a fire. I foresee that we might spend a fair amount of time outside to enjoy one of these final weekends of a beautiful fall season in Minnesota.
