Did you ever wonder why October wouldn’t be the eighth month? I mean octo- means eight, right? Just like our friend, September, October once had a different spot in the calendar.

I am not going to talk about the weather. I am not going to talk about the weather. I am not going to talk about the weather. OK, I am but just a little. Last month, I was bragging about our lush green grass. Well, that has definitely changed! It’s been hot and dry here …
