Well, with the wind and rain visiting us, a lot of leaves will be down. Not, I hope a lot, because this weekend everybody with wheels will be out on the highway looking for leaf color. So far, the pleasant weather scheduled for the coming weekend is still in place. We never know, in Michigan, how many good leaf-peeping weekends we’ll get. The coming one qualifies as one of the good ones. Fingers crossed this wind and rain won’t mess everything up. In the meantime, bundle up ’cause it’s downright chilly out there.
