Oh yes 28, we got back from our trip. We went all of the way to the eastern tip of Newfoundland, by staying in Canada, and coming home we crossed over into the States after we checked out Niagra Falls. Lake Michigan and Lake Superior were between the Falls and home so we chose to go a wee bit south, through Chicago and then angle up towards Saskatchewan, instead of going a way north in Ontario on the east side of the lakes.
We missed the 'turning colours' of the leaves in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, but we got to see them changing after we got into the States and when we got home our trees were gloriously coloured.

Speaking of winter, we finally got it, last night. There's about 7 or 8 inches of snow on the ground now.
So I've been planning my snow blade updates. A few years ago I made a small steel toboggan that fit under the trailing edge of my blade when it's angled. This 'slider' stops the corner of the blade from cutting into the lawn. The leading edge is rarely a problem as it is usually up on the driveway where the ground is frozen and packed hard. This year we haven't had much cold weather and the ground is so dry that the lawn will be ripped to shreds by the blade corner. Anyhow, when I made this little toboggan I didn't angle it enough so when the blade is angled the toboggan was 'out-toed' and it caught on something last winter and ripped off. So I've modified the direction it faces now.

We got snow Tuesday night I to Wednesday morning. My little corner of the world has had over a foot so far, three good snowfalls so far. Dad and I drove from Sherwood Park to east of Lloydminster today, lots of snow at home, lots of snow in Lloyd, not so much in between.
