October in the Midwest--one of my favorite times of year. People start using the word "crisp" to describe the air--even though it's a good 40 to 50 degrees warmer down there right now than it is up here...
Here in the Alaskan interior it is dead-on winter already. Snow fell a few days ago and already we have a base layer on the trails. The University has closed off some all-season trails to groom for the skiers (of which I hope to be one this year).
Joe and I put snow skirting around the cabin and have one of six cords of wood secured to keep us from freezing. Everyone says our first winter here was easy, and this year it's going to be a different story. Case in point, it was nine below when Joe got up at 8 AM this morning....
