Fall in Ontario!


Above if you look close ... really, really, close ... you will see the first signs of fall color on the maple tree in the cemetery in our little town of Dalston ... last week of August ... yep it's here.


And to celebrate, as we have done in the last several years we had a corn roast last weekend. OK, above is how corn should look if you get it fresh from Farmer Brown (across from the maple tree above) and are able to eat it a few hours after it it picked ... wow ... sweet, moist and huge kernels!



And the local Canadian Tire store and its ad for the fall sports wear ... get your skates now before school starts, eh.



And lastly on this fall rainy day ... I wouldn't think of piling any snow here ... yeah, I know, we think it's about time to work on our plans to move the Flying Scotsman to a warmer climate.
