Today-A little rain, mostly sun & a new Armey

This Surface Prog Chart says it all – a passing cold front dropped a little rain and behind it glorious winds, skies and cooler temperatures will be here tomorrow.  Behind all that is a stacking high pressure that will give some more moderate weather.

Jerry M called today.  The are on Kentucky Lake and heading South to Mobile via the Tenn-Tom.  This is their second trip and now they have a boat that goes 20+ knots if they so desire.  Slip fees are $0.70 per ft with electricity.  Much better than the Lake Michigan prices of $2 per ft.  We hope to meet them in Florida this winter somewhere near Sarasota.

Nephew Ben A. & wife had Natalie today.  As far as I know sister Ann was nearby and so was Grandfather Lee.  The pictures are posted on Facebook and she looks very cute.  This is from a guy that thinks babies do not look cute.

SAM headed for Walmart and would be gone only a while.  In that while, I did the whole lower yard picking up leaves – 4 loads today.  If I recall correctly, that brings the total to 17 loads.  Hopefully, tomorrow we can finish the whole area and then we will be on the back side of the curve.  I suspect this will be a 25 load year.  Weather was sunny and calm down by the lake with a west wind of 7 kts up on the top.
