The "Terminator" is now the "Governator". And with the mess that California is supposed to be in it will be interesting to see how Arnie handles it or whether the people will be "terminating" him in another 14 months.
With one big huge gust of wind yesterday, most of those gorgeous colored leaves are off the trees and all over my lawn, where they don't look quite so gorgeous. It doesn't take long for the seasons to change around here and before you know it we will be pushing snow off the driveway instead of grass clippings.
Thanksgiving is coming up this weekend and the big challenge is to be able to round up all the kids at the same time for the big feast. We may have to have multiple seatings to get everyone fed when they have the time.
We finally managed to have a go at the crabs last week and although they were very tasty, they sure were a lot of work. I find it hard to understand how maritime people have the patience to crack those little critters open for such a tiny morsel of meat. I guess I'm a true prairie guy where a big slab of beef on my plate is faster and easier. No wonder seafood is such a delicacy, you almost have to be a brain surgeon to eat it.
