Almost that time of year..
As October approaches, signs of fall can be found all around downtown Milwaukee these days: Fewer people are sitting outside at bars & restuarants during the evening, I have to put the top on my car up when driving to work in the mornings, and NHL previews are coming out!
After last seasons Stanley Cup Championship run, the Detroit RedWings lost their Head Coach and starting goaltender - both of whom were at the top of the league at their respective position - which for most teams would lead to a dismall outlook for the following season. They’ve kept the core of their team however, and are looking to repeat as NHL champions for the second straight year, and the fourth in seven years. Check out CNNSI’s or what ESPN has to say about the upcoming season for the Wings.
Opening game: Oct 10th vs. the San Jose Sharks! Go Wings!!!
It was a very sad day walking through the Market yesterday afternoon and watching all the restaurants pack up and disassemble the outdoor patios. I hate winter. ;)
Actually, I like this time of year. I’m not so much of a Winter person (hate it! hate it!), and although I enjoy the Summer - with the exception of the humidity - I’ve come to realize I’m an Early-Fall kind of guy. Crisp, cool air, and a whole chicken on my plate every sunday afternoon…. gotta love it.
Oh ya, don’t get me wrong.. Fall is totally my favorite time of the year!
Fall is my second favorite time of year, after Spring. We’ve barely had a taste of it here in the mid-South so far; it’s in the 90s (Fahrenheit, of course) again today. But Autumn is just around the corner…gotta love it.
“Gotta love it”…when I repeat what somebody else just said, then realize it. The plagiarism was unintentional. Sorry, bry…
