Hello, October! It is nice to see you, my friend.
I adore October. It is my favorite month. My wedding anniversary is in October. I look forward to colorful leaves, falling leaves, crisp air, sweaters, jackets, boots, fire pits, hot chocolate, pumpkins, pumpkin spice lattes, Halloween, homecomings… so much fun stuff in October.
Next weekend is our camping trip with the girl scouts. This will be our biggest group yet with about 20 girls and 11 moms. It is a busy weekend with horseback riding, activities, games, dutch oven cooking, and cleanup. But there is also much time for relaxing around the campfire and enjoying nature. I’m hoping to see some beautiful colors next weekend!
My St. Louis Cardinals’ season is officially over. No postseason play for us this year. It was a roller coaster season. We did keep the Milwaukee Brewers from making the playoffs so there’s that. Now I’m just looking forward to spring training.
Who is gearing up for NaNoWriMo next month? I have never participated and doubt I have the time but I flirt with the idea every year.
Thanks so much for having coffee with me this weekend. There is no linkup this time, Diana at parttimemonster.com has been our lovely host but has been on a bit of a hiatus. Until our next cup!
I do love October. I think it has always been my favorite. I hope you have a wonderful camping trip next week- you always do!

You could jump on the Rocktober bandwagon and join me cheering on the Rockies! Can’t wait to read about your camping trip. It always sounds amazing.

Well we spent so much time trying to get ahead of the Rockies to get that wild card spot. I could root for them now. Really, I’m rooting for whoever is playing the Cubs 😉

Good luck with NaNo! I’m certain I can’t keep up with it with my schedule, but can’t decide if I should try anyway and see how far I can get.
