Looks alot like summer this fall

This summer has lasted much longer than most that we can remember. The temperatures even last week hovered in the mid 80's. The turn of the leaves has been delayed a few weeks at least. We can remember going to the harvest party with no leaves on anything. The frost has often killed everything in the yard by now, and the first frost is usually just an early October memory.
This year we have only recently been given 40's overnight. This week we have been in the fall temperatures so we will soon see the changes we are accustomed to seeing.
The sugar maple in theback yard is the first to turn and this picture shows is is starting now. This was taken October 23rd.

We are looking forward to seeing our kids from Okinawa this fall as they return from assignment there for three years. We praise the Lord for watching over them as they were so far away.
