Fall is here.\u00a0 This is my favorite season of\u00a0the year. The weather\u00a0on the South Plains has been typically mild (Sunny, mid 50’s in before sunup and low 80’s before sundown.)<\/p>\n
The days are getting shorter as the sun goes down earlier and earlier everyday. The leaves are just starting to yellow and lawns are nearing their final days of green. Canada geese have not yet filled the pond across the street, but the grackles have arrived and are filling the trees in the park.<\/p>\n
Funnel cakes, corndogs, and fresh squeezed lemonade. Bright lights, fast rides and blue ribbon winning livestock. The South Plains Fair is packing up just about ready to leave town.<\/p>\n
Students have returned and Tech is back in full swing.\u00a0 The Red Raiders are 3 and 0 and after last night are ranked 8 in the nation.\u00a0 Go Red Raiders!<\/p>\n
Soccer practice and homework fill our nights. That is, until prime time TV.\u00a0 The new fall season of all our favorites has begun. The Office, Survivor, Lost and of course Sunday night football. Go Cowboys!<\/p>\n
Half the seasonal aisles at the markets are filled with all the usual Halloween acroutements, the other half are filling with Christmas. Our costumes for this year\u2019s haunt are already picked out.\u00a0 Pirates all around. Can\u2019t wait to hand out treats to all the little ghosts, goblins and ghouls who knock on my door. Before I know it, I will be picking out our holiday turkey and baking our traditional pumpkin pie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
