brief comment on the month of November . This year has been one where every month seems to have been bumped by another . Summer months cold and wet like April or September with only a couple of weeks in end of August that seemed like actual summer days . And all Oct days were early December weather - cold and clear .

Now we are in November and we are cold but in the normal range . The nights grow clearer as the humidity drops and the stars pop into recognition . The deer hunters are in the field and Thanksgiving is bearing down with family and food and the jump off the Christmas season cliff .

Soon the lion returns and then the newlyweds . Thanksgiving aplenty on the day this year.
