GREETINGS FROM THE NATI

Hola Amigos! This special broadcast is brought to you live from Cincinnati! Well, actually from Middletown, which is just outside the Nati, or Cinci, or any of the other numerous nicknames that my niece seems to have for her hometown. All I know is, we just thought we were having fall weather down in Texas. Up here, it's the real deal! It would appear that they are also more into decorating for fall than we are, as the yards are full of pumpkins, mums and scarecrows. The only thing missing is fall color on the trees - the main reason for us finally planning a fall visit up here (usually the in-laws come to us this time of year). Alas, color change is a hard thing to pin down, and we ended up being a couple of weeks too early. Pooey.
