I believe in them and taught it to my students when I was an English teacher. <BR/><BR/>Did you get the email I sent?

When I lived in St. Petersburg, Florida, I swear that the weather forecasters used to look out of the window, and then get paid thousands to tell us, the proletariat, that it was going to rain in 10 minutes. As they were 10 minutes away from my humble abode, it was usually raining already. <BR/>BTW, there is a company in Turkey called Enesse. Maybe they couldn't spell Tennessee....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-44295158461381017612008-10-25T17:34:00.000-04:002008-10-25T17:34:00.000-04:00Beautiful foliage!

We learned in science class (oh, so many years ago) that it is the combination of the cool and the wet that triggers the color change in the leaves. Down here, we've not really had enough of either to make it noteworthy this year.<BR/><BR/>wv: enesse--Quebec lake monster#Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16912664724362916680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-30301975421348173452008-10-25T07:15:00.000-04:002008-10-25T07:15:00.000-04:00When over in Canada last month, I went to Dorset. ...When over in Canada last month, I went to Dorset. The leaves were a sight to beholden. Here in the Olde Worlde, we've also had some spectacular colors. I believe this is because we had a heavy frost (temps well below 32 or zero in new money) a couple of weeks back. The weather people tell me it is because we had such a wet summer. My cousin-in-law Rita in Toronto agrees with me. She knows more about the weather and nature than all of these TV 'experts'. <BR/>To all you Ferrari and Porche fans, get a Morris 1000 is what I say. <BR/>As Debi said, great pics Ricardipus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-82938921747660994532008-10-24T14:15:00.000-04:002008-10-24T14:15:00.000-04:00Great pictures, the trees are nice too!Great pictures, the trees are nice too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346682505354790114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-70787324513257595422008-10-24T06:46:00.000-04:002008-10-24T06:46:00.000-04:00Wow, that looks like a very expensive school bus.....Wow, that looks like a very expensive school bus...<BR/><BR/>Nice photos!#Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16912664724362916680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-49816947927388134192008-10-23T23:07:00.000-04:002008-10-23T23:07:00.000-04:00Heh.

Then they are confined to their garages till more Ferrari-friendly weather returns. Another sign of approaching winter for me is my significant other starting his usual talk of "I really need to find a cheap winter car this year. I can't drive the Porsche in all that rain again!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
