Feels Like Winter Already

So glad I took this picture two weeks ago.I took this picture outside our front door looking across the street to the wooded area.What a lovely view we have in the autumn.Here it is two weeks later and it feels like winter already.Our trees changed earlier than usual this year.There are still leaves on the trees but most have turned brown and ready to fall if they haven't already.

It is only 40 outside with a chance of rain mixed with snow over night.

Grandson Jeremy was suppose to have soccer playoffs this weekend.It has been cancelled due to three factors:the weather forecast,lots of sick players and poor field conditions.We are so glad that the play offs were cancelled since it is too cold for the children to be playing soccer when most have them have either been sick or are sick already.

Our grandchildren have had the illness that has been going around in our area.They are calling it an upper respiratory infection but our grandson seemed to have all of the flu symptoms even though the test for flu came back negative.

The week ahead looks to be rather nice compared to the week just ended.We can only hope!
