It must be winter.

Okay, there is sunshine when I walk the dog this morning. Daylight savings time has provided sunshine for Sadie's and my walk in the morning. Last week, it was getting winter-time grim with the city shutting off the street lights before the sun was up. The leaves are piling up in the corners and any place that can catch them. The wind when it comes out of the northeast, over the lake, is damn cold. I have to wear a knit cap and gloves now. So you'd think all of that spells winter, but no. No, the real sign that winter is here is that the restaurants have pulled the tables off the sidewalk and put them into storage.
