Visit to the Zoo
Saturday was a great day for a trip to Brookfield Zoo. The weather was warm enough so we didn't need heavy coats, and most of the animals were still outside. It was also Boo at the Zoo, a day when kids can dress up in their Halloween costumes and participate in lots of fun activities.

First Snowfall of the Season
The weather report said a chance of snow flurries, but when they say snow in October, it usually means five flakes an hour and you need to stare outside at a black building in order to see the flakes.
Not this year!
Snow on October 12th?
The earliest measurable snowfall in the Chicago area in 120 years.
I thought the earth was warming?? Guess if I use the same logic as some global warming alarmists who claim global warming when we have a day over 95 degrees, I should start yelling, "Global cooling!"
Let's all crank out our aerosol cans and start spraying to warm things up!
Anyway, it looks nice, but it's way too early for me.

Rescue Helicopter Landing
Had the opportunity last Saturday to snap a couple of photos of the Loyola Medical Center emergency helicopter landing in a parking lot in Orland Park, IL.
The leaves and other debris can be seen flying around the parking lot.
