Goodbye, summer...
How silently they tumble down
At other times, they wildly fly

Do you live off the lake? I used to live about a quarter of a mile from the lake shore and October was always really nice. 23? Brrr...

Yep... Put it in yesterday. Thank you!
Motor on... I tried the colored B&W thing, but I thought the full-color version was just more complete:

You're a man of many talents, ImagoX.

racoones and skunks reside. it tends to get colder here than
near the Lake.

I miss Chi-town. It was an OK city to be a penniless student, so I'd LOVE to see what it would be like with, you know, an actual SALARY. Damn parking in the city is madness, though.

Love it. The beading water just made the photo timeless. Based on the color, how is the convertible holding in the wet weather?

So far so good... I wish I'd been able to re-apply the Areospace top sealant before it got really wet, though. It needs a hot, sunny day for proper curing. My beading is starting to fail. Other than that, no leaks or anyhting else.
