October in New England

Well, the BoSox have managed to keep their fans teetering on the edge of the abyss for another couple of days...

Meanwhile, we have pale sunshine under high clouds, precursors of forecast rain.  I'm a little surprised at the timing -- Wife has a round of school groups scheduled at the nature center, and we'd expected torrential downpours.  Now looks like the precip will hold off long enough so the little darlings don't drown.

It seems to me...

There is something basically wrong with overlapping the baseball and the hockey sports seasons.

And in other news...

We have reached "peak color" on the state foliage rating.  Areas to the north and west of us have passed peak.  If you have any desire for Glorious Autumn, now is the hour.

Not raining yet, either.
