Here's a mini rant on the fact that I have been ROBBED of my fall! Seriously, September was in the 80's, warmer than most of the crazy summer, making it miserable for the kids going back to (the non-air-conditioned) school. Our apple picking session, normally the last weekend in September, would have been more comfortable with short sleeves and maybe even shorts.
I was dealing with all of that, figuring that I would get my weeks of beautiful fall foliage, 50-60 degree temps... and then I woke up Saturday and saw this.
I know this is Minnesota and all, but people... it didn't go away until late in the afternoon! On Sunday night, we actually had an accumulation, that is still on the ground on Tuesday. There is a SNOWMAN on my front lawn! In early OCTOBER! grrrrrr.....
I walked Madilyn to school in a significant snowstorm on Monday, and muttered and grumbled as I arrived home drenched from the wet, sticky stuff. IF I knew that the snow would stick around long enough and thick enough to be groomed for skiing, I could have been appeased, but this is just... wrong.
I was robbed. Where is my autumn????

Wow, you did get robbed. I can't believe it already snowed. Fall was always one of our favorite seasons in Minnesota. We miss you guys.
