The First Flakes of Winter

Yes, the first snowflakes of winter fell today. It's a cold and blustery day and you can tell winter is just around the corner. On the bright side that means broomball soon!

On the down side, anticipate a major meteorological event on Saturday, November 17, beginning around 1 p.m. as that is when everyone is coming to help us move. I'm not trying to be a pessimist, but based on historical climatological data something major weather-wise will happen as we move. Friends in Ripon will recall helping us move to our Jackson Street house in the middle of a monsoon! Oshkosh back to Ripon came with additional rainfall - mostly a cold wet drizzle. We moved to Northfield in January accompanied by near-record snowfall, etc. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong, but if not remember you heard it here first. Get those snow blowers ready!
