Fall.
It is upon us finally.
Lord willing today Tuesday the 20th will be the last day above 75. It's been borderline ridiculous.
I want overcast, skies, sleet, nasty wind, snow, road closures, and all around bleakness.
That sounds bad.
I just love cold, cold bleak weather. I like drinking hot drinks bundling up w/ my wife and son and enjoying the indoors, during the fall and winter.
There is nothing in this world like waking up early on a cold, dreary Saturday morning, brewing some coffee bundling up, getting a pipe out w/ a bowl of Dunhill's Early Morning Pipe and going and sitting outside w/ the coffee and good book or the Bible and just enjoying the cold weather.
God, I love reading scripture in the cold.
After the coffee and my pipe are gone I head back in to defrost my buns and get in the shower and rinse my mouth with rubbing alcohol so my wife will have something to do with me that day.
Then I get the little guy up and we get in bed. There is nothing better than being w/ your loved ones on days like that.

On other notes.
The little man is almost there with walking. Last night we got in about 40 steps combined before the night was out. His longest was about 8 steps and took up about 6 feet. Pretty sweet. It'll happen soon.
I think I'm going to force my wife to play Tennis with me. We need to have some exercise thing to stick to. I just need to learn how to play.
College Football is about to enter bowl season. It's been a topsy turvy year to say the least. College basketball has already had some crazy upsets to begin the year.
2 of my good military friends are about to ship out in the next 2 months. Kinda sad. I think I'm going to stop getting to know military folk because they all leave.
I kid.
Have a great thanksgiving.
