Just for the record I haven't been to all those places (I wish). I just search the internet for the pictures I like best. TM is in the Algave today this area is know for wonderful beaches and it a tourist spot of Europeans. Our heatwave is over. Right now we have the same weather as Bahamamomma only expecting a high of 75 degrees and a low of 54 degrees. I hope we don't get a frost until after all my peppers are ripe. The habaneros are just turning yellow from that they should go to orange and be ready to pick.

Good Morning Kids!
Happy Wine Day to all!
It's getting into the 70's over the weekend!!! :-D:-D:-D:-D   
Perfect just in time for the weekend soccer match!!  
Gotta love Facebook! They are playing another game this Oct. for Breast cancer awareness month. Last year's game was the post in one word the color of your bra. This year's game has nothing to do with bra color however anyone not in on the game is reading all these status from their women friends and is thinking something totally different then what the status really means!! Too funny.....:-D:-) 
Last years Bra Status game made it on the News let's see if this years game makes it.
Have a wonderful super awesome day everyone!!!!

In my area's coffee shops Pumpkin Spice coffee was only available from Mid Sept. until Nov. or before that if they run out.
However now Pumpkin Spice coffee is available all year round at least in my area coffee shops.
The flavor has been so popular that they keep it now all year.
One of my favorites along with Peppermint Mocha.

Good Morning Gang,
Kat - I think you work in the wrong area of government. You should work for the Department of Travel and Tourism! You are so good and finding pictures for the virtual trips and researching questions.
I guess I'll have to log in to Facebook and see what the October mystery is.

Thank you.  I love to travel and wish I could go more often. That is why I enjoy the vitural trips so much. It's fun to see all the interesting places out there.
CQ Peppermint Mocha is also my favorite, the Gingerbread Latte is also yummy. That sounds like an interesting game on facebook I will have to check it out.
Yesterday I harvested the garden. I got Zucchini (I was surprised I thought it was finished), Bell Peppers, Poblano Pepper, Basil, and a ton of tomatoes. So I made a big batch of sauce. My stick blender came in handy for blending the tomatoes. My hubby is going to make noddles. I love cooking mainly from the garden, it's healther and tasty. I still have a bunch of tomatoes and some more are starting to ripen. I will have to start freezing them. Bahamamomma gave me some tips I will try out.
We got a new used trailer, we pick it up on Thursday or Friday. It's just a small one, but it's perfect size for me and the hubby. He wants to camp in the Mojave Desert. He said something about rattle snakes, scorpions, and hiking.   I'm not a big fan of camping or rattlesnakes. I hope I don't see any rattle snakes and scorpions. We are taking the dogs so it should be interesting.  Buddy Boy was crazy playful this morning he jumped on the cat, then his chicken, and then Maggie (the other dog). Maggie wasn't into it. Buddy Boy cracks me up. He got in trouble for being to rough with the cat. I keep telling him the cat is not a chew toy. I still think that cat like Buddy Boy better then he likes us.

Good Morning Gang,
Kat, I'm all for camping ... camping out on the lido deck!
Seriously, I do enjoy camping but would be far more interested in heading to Yosemite, Tahoe or Northern California than heading to the desert.

I do prefer Yosemite and Lake Tahoe, this is trip planned on short notice so that means no Yosemite. Plus the hubby wants to go to the desert so I will come along.  It might be more fun then I expect. I prefer the lido deck camping.

Good Morning Gang,
Things are warming up for an Indian Summer this weekend. It will be a hot day on Sunday as the Glorious Colts of Indianapolis take on the Evil Chiefs of Kansas City, Sorry Bahama. Actually should be a great game. KC has been playing very well and our defense isn't looking too good.
Kat, when do you hit the desert?

This is a tough football week. I haven't made my picks yet. I need to do it soon. We picked up the trailer yesterday. We will leave for the desert on Monday 10/18 to either Friday the 22th or Saturday the 23th. I do like that trailer is a cute little thing. We are taking the dogs so that should be interesting. I heard there are Rattlesnakes so I'm a bit concerned.
I will need someone to help me with the football pool while I'm gone. Can you help me out with the Monday Nightbreaker results on 10/18 and putting in the new games for the week. I do KC for Bahama, Indy for you, 49ers or Raiders for me, Atlanta for Will, & Green Bay for Henry. But if you don't do it that way it will be fine for one week as long as we have games to pick.  I would really a ppreciate it.

Good Morning Gang,
We had a good evening last night. One of our town's "artsy" areas had a gallery walk so we enjoyed popping in and out seeing the works of many local artists. Temps were wonderful for an October weekend. We're supposed to be in the 80's the next three days. Tomorrow may break a record at 85!
Kat - I'll be glad to help with the football pool while you are away. Maybe we'll even add a virtual camping trip to the Last Gang list

Thanks Bob I knew I could count on you.  Part of the reason my hubby wants to go to the desert is for the Orionids meteor shower the peak of this shower is on October 21. It looks like - Comet Hartley 2 will be around this time as well.
