How Many Snowflakes in a Flurry?

This morning on the way to Nashville, we drove through about 5 flakes and a few miles of snow on the ground.As you can see, the leaves are changing nicely. And as you can see below, Abbott was very cute today (yes, Aunt Lissa, that's his new guitar he's playing with).

Enjoy these before...

Oh, and of course, it's football time in Tennessee.

Monday night, September 8

No damage, we were just without cable, internet and phone for about 12 hours. It was nice.
