GANANOQUE??? SLOWLY I TURNED...
GANANOQUE - paradise for fishermen (AND WOMEN !) from both sides of the river .
We have quiet and cool fall weather in Balingen. A little foggy but with some sun, too. I took a long walk today - it's a holiday in Germany. This is Balingen on November 1 looking down from Heuberg.

just a great day : sunny and still mild , about 10 C around noon , so we
went for a walk by the lake .
when we got home i decided i'd better give the lawn another cut ; it's really green and luscious , much nicer than it was in august .
Friday started out chilly, breezy but sunny. There is still a lot of color left in the leaves. As the day wore on it clouded up and now it is drizzling. Might turn to sleet after midnight.
We had snow on Friday and then rain and heavy winds since Saturday. It feels cold!
Global warming
I am a doubter concerning global warming. But, if someone would show me that our temperature readings from the moon and from Mars have remained totally steady, while Earth's temperature has risen, then I would be more apt to entertain the idea that, in fact, we have warmed up totally on our own. I suspect, however, that sun cycles have warmed us up, and the moon and Mars as well.
It's pissing down here. I just walked home from the pub a lot faster than I usually do.
Atacking an enemy fortification in that is definitely something to be avoided.

Welcome, ozbn, to A2K. This may not be the thread to talk about this, but you have to start somewhere. I'll be back with some comments in a day or so. I am a slow thinker.
Again, welcome.

stuck my nose out the sidedoor under the carporch , probably as far OUTSIDE as i'll go today ... not really so bad inside :wink: - particularly since i smell cheesecake being baked in the kitchen
The Hamburgers DID thinkabout fleeing Canada a month or so ago. I don't mean to rub it in, but here is what you are missing: The fall colors turned out to be pretty decent. The red and yellow maples came through for us here in Virginia, and everything peaked about a week ago. Now the leaves are falling like, um, leaves, but today it is 67 degrees F.
