October update

Well I can't believe that it's been almost three weeks since my last update.
Fall is finally making herself known and I am a little sad as I can't play 9 holes of golf in the evenings anymore. It also means we're in the middle of deer hunting season and so my front yard has become a sanctuary for half a dozen or so of the little critters. For some reason they seem to know I haven't got a gun yet. Linnet is planning to get some corn to feed them so they will hang around all winter. I'm still in a quandary with the whole thing as I like the venison that Brad at work has given me but the novelty of having them on the front lawn hasn't worn off yet. The other little novelty is squirrels. I had one the other day come down a tree and tell me off. Very comical. This weekend we are off to Port Orford to take in the Coast and to hang out with Linda and Rockne (Linnet's Mum & Step-dad). It will be good to see the ocean again even if it's too cold to go in. Apart from that I have nothing really to say. I'm still waiting for emails to come in from some of you (that¹s my little guilt trip) and I am missing hearing about how things are going over there. I am also a little disappointed that I won't get the Ashes. Part 2 of the spiel is below.
