Today it's sunny and 76F in Dallas. Honestly, I can't believe it's November. When I lived in the Great White North I absolutely hated November to the point where I dreaded the month. November back home is a cold, dark, dreary month with the leaves off the trees and the grass a shade of dead. Perhaps that is why I would start playing Christmas music mid-month back home to lift my spirits. Maybe this is 'Bizarro' world in Texas because I love November here. The weather finally cools down to the 70s and it's great to get outdoors and do things. Meanwhile, the leaves are beginning to turn color, although not as vibrant a display as back home, but still the crepe myrtle leaves turn a deep burgundy and other leaves mostly yellow. November is a joy here.
