fall on the old homefront







It has been a rough week locally, state-wide and nationally, so it was nice to hit the weekend to sort of get a break from the real world. Statewise, the ongoing body count from the mass murders in Cleveland has dominated the news daily. In Medina, there was a house fire that took the life of an 8 yr old Garfield child with older sibs at Claggett. And, the failure of the school levy has dropped a curtain of gloom over everyone. I actually had kids in tears in class. We are all waiting to see what $8million in cuts will look like.

It was a beautiful day today though and with some sleep and sunshine and putz-time, we are feeling much better. After a week of cold, rain and frosty nights, the leaves and colors are all but gone, but Dad took some pictures when colors were at their peek. Not much different than NY, but we thought you might enjoy a couple of fall photos from home.
