Alright... this is more like it! After non-stop rain last weekend... this weekend will be a refreshing change- just a little on the cool side. Average high this time of year is still in the mid 60s- we'll be closer to 60 degrees.

The weekend though will be bright- with lots of sunshine and dry weather! That will be good weather to get out and enjoy all that the fall has to offer locally. I'm guessing local farms will be busy with people picking apples and picking out their pumpkins. BTW ... I understand each crop faired differently as a result of all the wet weather we had over the summer. Pumpkins- not so good... too much rain can cause what's called 'blossom end rot'. (thanks Tim Skeehan from Russell's Garden Center) Apples- a bumper crop from what I understand... benefited from all the rain.

I haven't been able to get out to my local farm yet (Lookout Farm in Natick) and won't be able to make it this weekend- as Kevin mentioned... A.J. is getting married this weekend and we'll be there to cheer him on. Congrats A.J.!!

Happy dry weekend all- what are you up to?
Cindy

After all this rain we have had, my son, Ethan (6) and I are DEFINITLY going to be outside! Tips of the tress are starting to turn here in Worcester so hopefully we will go apple picking. And a pumpkin or too I bet. By the way, Ethan wishes you a Happy Birthday. He wanted to know how old you are but I said numbers don't matter to big people. He's one of your giggest fans. You make the weather fun for him. I get my daily forecast from him!

Congrats to AJ!!

We'll be up in NH for apple picking on Sunday, looks like it'll be great (but chilly) weather for running around the orchard. We make our annual trek up to Applecrest Farms in Hampton, their freshly made cider donuts are terrific, and their pies are perfect for the holidays, just keep them frozen.

And of course, Happy Birthday, Cindy!
