Winds of Change


Fall is here but the weather has been pretty warm. It seems like summer is somewhat reluctant to let go. There are just hints of colors on the trees teasing me with the promise of things to come.

Pumpkins and beautiful fall Mums fill the produce stands and garden shops. Scarecrows and other Fall and Halloween decorations are popping up around town. Mostly I am just counting the days until Rob comes home on leave. Less than a month now and he will be home for a few weeks. I will spoil him rotten when he is here!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month so I just wanted to remind everyone of the importance of regular self exams, mammography, and anual checks by your doctor. For more information here are several links:


Please pass on this information to your family, friends, and co-workers. It's very important and could save the life of someone you love.

Not the colors are always evident, at times they are imagined, as your feelings of these days.
