This last weekend was a nice Fall weekend. We started off in the morning cleaning up the yard of fallen leaves, etc. to quickly change from sweatshirts to t-shirts after about 15 minutes as the day warmed up just enough to take the chill off. It was nice to see the trees beginning to change color a little after the change in temps with our two or three days of rain (a good start for the rainy season).
A few other chores and some college football took up the rest of the afternoon and then we took a "Halloween Cruise" with the Bethkes whose boat was decorated with pumpkins, witches and small skeleton lights.
Church service was dedicated to missionary work and emphasized the dramatic increase in Christianity with the last 40 years, primarily in China and South Korea. The swath of countries from Indo-China through the Middle East to northern Africa remains the most difficult and least evangelized area in the world.
Sunday lunch was nachos with cheese, black beans, salsa and guacamole with brewskis as we watched some pro football. We ate enough that we didn't even have dinner! After some computer/financial work, I then caught the second game of the World Series and watched Boston go up 2 to 0.
Obviously, not an over-taxing weekend, but just fun to relax and enjoy our home and neighborhood. Hope you had a good weekend as well.

Bryce - definitely! Fall is an excellent time for sports on TV with college football, NBA and the World Series. You might be surprised when you're home in January that you actually like my hi-def screen. And the DVR setup lets me "tape" shows or games and watch them w/o commercials or in a fast forward mode so a 3 hour game takes about 45 minutes to watch. But I read too.
Hey-
Came across your blog today. Great stuff. Hope you enjoyed your "Halloween Cruise."
Noticed you were a college sports fan. Hoping you could add a Blogroll link to my "College Basketball Blog,"
http://collegeball.blogspot.com. I'd very much appreciate a link on your site.
And would gladly return the favor, adding you to my blogroll.
Thanks!

Ok Grumpy, sorry class was trying today, and I agree with you that a fair portion of programming is useless. My preference is for sports, cable news, Law and Order, and the occassional reality series like Survivor which I've been watching since its inception.
