Well, the kids went trick-or-treating on dry ground. Windy, yes . . . cold, yes. . . full moon, yes - well at least close. . but definately no snow. It still hasn't snowed this season. I'm not complaining, but I am wanting to document this fact as every year since I've lived up here there has been at least one snowfall before Halloween. Most years it melts, but last year we were stuck with it from the first week of October. The National Weather Service has recorded snow as early as September 22nd and as late as November 11th in Anchorage, and I suspect those dates don't differ too much for the valley weather where we live.
All this good weather has been perfect for Bryant to finish the necessary boat preparations for the big trip down south. He's busy winding up the last odds and ends before he leaves on Thursday. The plan is to drive the truck pulling the boat down to San Carlos, Mexico where it will spend the winter under the sunny skies on the eastern shore of the Sea of Cortez. I'll write more about this adventure when the boat leaves our driveway and arrives in its said destination.
