Michael, I am a little bit farther north of you in Wisconsin and there are several trees on my daily commute that have begun to drop their green color in favor of some reds and yellows.

The apple trees started to drop their fruit about two weeks ago, again that seems early to me too, but I suppose it is right on schedule all things considered.

My cat has begun her fall ritual of fattening up for the long winter ahead. That is never a good sign when she starts bulking up this early, LOL!

I havent had to break out the ice scraper yet, but it was chilly enough last week that the wipers were pushing around some pretty heavy dew on the old windshield. I have to say, I wasnt liking that at all.
