Almost all the leaves have fallen from the red maple in my front yard. The weather was okay this weekend, but the cold is setting it. We had another restful weekend and were fortunate to get together with good friends. We are sufficiently recharged for a new week. The past two days have brought a death penalty for Saddam Hussein for atrocities against 148 Shiites, and the embarrassing fall of an evangelical leader in Colorado. Such and strange world we live in. I will not start a rant on this blog, or share my political views. All I will say is.... do something nice for someone this week. When you are done, teach your children to do the same.
