Indeed, a daily rain is becoming a totally different weather pattern. I have to wonder whether that will continue into winter.....

Canadian geese have been flying south, alighting on the pond behind me, for two weeks. Seems a tad early...just sayin'...

I pointed out to my wife today. "look at all the geese" Our town is filled with them. Is there a fire up north in Canada? Goose season starts September first. Also leaves are starting to change. Walnut leaves are yellow and all over our drive way. chestnuts have browned out and dropped leaves. I think in 2-3 years these chestnut trees will be dead. A few maples are changing to a red hue. The days get slower and the years get quicker.

To me the term "climae change" is much more acceptable than "global warming/cooling.
I will admit that activities of man has been of some effect with climate change. However
I do think that the Sun has more affect than many care to admit. The temperature of the
Earth has been rising for at least 600+ years ever since the "Little Ice Age". It seems that
few ever mention this condition, IMHO that is because nothing political can be made of that.
In this area we have needed to cut grass in December. Even with the amount of rain recently
we are not ahead on rain amounts and the general area is still considered to be in drought.
I am still afraid that the climate will change much more and faster than man can make
significant change. :(

Several flocks have passed overhead here, too, coming from the west, over Rt80, and appearing to be headed southeast of here in northwestern NJ, honking all the way . They have a couple favorite graveyards, here, that they enjoy traipsing around in, casually, leaving their little messages for all to tiptoe among, alongside a river. They all relaxed about their presence among pedestrians in the graveyards, among which it is easy to move very close to them, almost touching the occasional head, in fact.
