Yeah, you're right, chilly... right now I read a bit under 50° and it probably won't get too much over the mid-80's later on...:D :D

Now you know why I have spent all these years in the Phoenix area, we're finally making up for those 115° days we have a couple of months ago..sign1 sign1

Oh, and we now have a steady stream of RV's and trailers clogging up our roads right now with plates from Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio, NY, Minnisota, Ontario. We call them "snowbirds", an annual migration from up north usually taking place to destinations like Florida, S. California and Arizona. :eek:

Bass Pro Shops Grand Opening. Got one more on the schedule. Nov 16 Omaha NE [cold] Cablea's Grand Opening. Then a break. May not do anything until second week in Feb. [Orlando]. Start the Spring Bass Pro circuit. Maybe I can get my layout done. Have a good one.

Morning. Pretty but cool day. Off to run errands. BTW: while in Ft. Myers my National Rental had satellite radio. Track 4 is 1940's music and news. They announce a passenger train leaving on track 4 and then give the names of the cities it stops in. Pretty neat to hear the old passenger dispatches. Later

We just bought a new vehicle that came with a six-month subscription to Sirus. I'll check it out, not that I plan on paying for it once it has to be renewed. Something about actually paying to listen to the likes of Howard Stern does absolutely nothing for us. :rolleyes:

In the meantime, I get to enjoy a great fall week here with temps forecast to reach between the low to high 80's all week. It's been a nice fall so far, the A/C hasn't kicked on for almost a week now, and it's still nice enough not to turn the heat on either. :thumb: :thumb:

Good news then, enjoy your car.

I expect they have more than Howard. I heard he isnt working out as they had hoped.

WE have a week of 70* weather forcast for west central W Va all week.
