It is that time again, when the leaves turn wonderful shades of red and gold and there is a light nip in the air and we all hope that the Tigers can just pull it off and maybe go all the way this time. We all put on our Tiger shirts and sometimes like my son and his friend we drive down town to watch them lose. Now we don’t go down town expecting them to lose but it just seams to me that every time I go to one of their games they lose. I use to think that it was just my bad luck rubbing off on them but I am older and wiser now and I know that it is just coincidence that they lose every time I go to a game but I do think they lose a lot more than they should. Don’t you agree? You know tho no matter how much they lose there is just something about being a Tiger fan that only a Tiger fan can understand, no matter how much they lose or how many mistake they make we still keep coming back for more. So go get em Tigers, because pretty soon the beautiful leaves will be gone, winter will be creeping up on us and we will hardly be able to wait to see The Boys Of Summer playing ball again. So good luck Tigers, hope to see you in the World Series, but just in case you don’t make it, well, we will see you again next summer.

What a beautiful fall day in my Michigan Neighborhood! Just a perfect day, will not for everybody. My son went fishing today, he loves to fish, and his truck broke down. Now he probably could of survived that, but he had to leave his boat by the side of the road! Now for those of you who don’t know my son, well this is an earth shattering experience. About 12:00 noon the phone rings and it is Bill, truck broke down, tow truck on the way for his truck but can’t tow boat. Being the good Mother that I am I say I’ll bring the other truck up and get you where are the keys, in my pocket says he. Call Janet and Linel says he, OK will do. Now he is about an hour and half away at a place called Avery Lake, sure they say. Now They have a very nice car, a very nice little car, so off we go. Beautiful day, beautiful drive and we arrive to find him standing forlornly by his boat,( his shinny beautiful Ranger Bass Boat) and you can almost see the panic in his face at the thought of leaving his boat by the side of the road, or maybe it was the thought of him trying to squeeze his 6′ 5″ body into the front seat of that very nice, very little car and as he squeezes himself into the front seat he turns to our friend of 35 years and says boy what a nice little car you have. Linel looks at him and says yea I like it. Linel never cracks a smile and off we go with Bills knees against his nose! Tuned out to be a fun day and we all had a nice lunch at guess who’s expense. Anyway I am back home and he is off to Avery Lake in hopes of finding his boat still by the side of the road. On the bright side of the whole thing I had my camera with me and snapped a few nice photos of a beautiful fall day in Michigan, the colors are just starting but still very nice. Enjoy
