October!?!?!

October throughout most of the country is time to look at all the beautiful leaves falling from their branches and enjoy the ever changing colors of the landscape. Here in Fairbanks October is practically the opposite of anything like that. September was a time of change, rapid change at that, and October has turned into quite the cold and snowy month so far. This morning we reached almost subzero temperatures, which isn't that cold, if you've been here through a full winter. But, we also received over six inches of snow this weekend, which meant sledding all day long on Sunday. Cowabunga!!
