Can you believe tomorrow is the last day of October? 2020? What a year, right? I hope you're enjoying a beautiful autumn wherever you may be. We have some pretty colors here in our town, but we've seen prettier. Weekend before last, we drove up to the mountains for the day, and the colors were so dull; it was as if the leaves were seriously considering just skipping the whole show this year. It was a disappointment, for sure. Chalk another one up to 2020. I am thankful for mostly blue skies and puffy white clouds today. Yesterday, we suffered the leftover wind and rain of Hurricane Zeta, and I realize that what we had was mild indeed compared to what the people of Louisiana have been hit with. There were several large trees down in our neighborhood and the surrounding town; this morning we heard that about 100,000 residents in North Carolina are still without power. In looking at pictures of the Gulf Coast, we were very fortunate.
Happy Columbus Day everyone. Before I get to the rest of my post, I want to say that I've really had a challenging time lately with blogging, and especially visiting other blogs. At first I thought it was Blogger, but now Mr. Forest Manor and I have determined the problem is with my browser, Google Chrome. Certain blogs would open and load immediately for me, and others refused to load. I was not able to visit my friend Betsy at Estelle's, and I wanted to leave some comments for her. I also tried to visit Michele at Finch Rest and Martha at Lines From Linderhof. I've now switched to using Microsoft Edge as my browser, and that is working well (for now). Is anyone else out there having these kinds of problems?
