We love the fall season, filled with warm Indian Summer days, and cool evenings.  The colors that Mother Nature produces, is simply spectacular in many places from East to West coasts.

There are 7 weeks until Thanksgiving – plenty of time for decorating!  Put out a few fall colors both indoors and outside (marigolds anyone?) and of course, pumpkins and gourds.

But its also an important time to prepare your house and yard for the winter weather ahead.  Keeping leaves raked, cleaning gutters, shutting off outdoor faucets and putting away hoses are all important for those living in harsh cold climates.

My favorite tip; time to sharpen the knives!
