I've been writing September for the past 9 days. I just can't seem to get it through my head that it's actually October! I heard on the news this morning that they're calling for snow this weekend. Maybe some of that white stuff will help the changing seasons sink in! Hopefully the dropping temperatures and chance of snow doesn't keep everyone indoors this weekend, there is so much going on around the state! Put your foot down and show that Wisconsin weather who is boss, and make a date to go to some of these events!
