I'm in the South-winters are short and sweet--so not much. My HVAC guy will service our furnace, my irrigation guy will blow out the system of water, and I will change my closets to have my fall/winter clothes in the master bedroom closet.

Good morning Bob. Our properties are in tiptop shape, so repairs are handled once they are spotted, other that normal fall clean up, not much needs to be done this year.

Make it a great weekend!

Winter is still almost 3 months away up here.  I still need to see the fall colours and do many fall activities until I start thinking about winter.

Got the drought tolerant material yard delivered today.  The worker says he will not be here leaving mushroom compost and top soil mix in front of our bed room window.  Covered it up. Hopefully the reduced odor will keep flies away...

 

Waiting for that rain since one can not turn on water sprinkler by city code.

The list is too long to share... up here you really do prepare for winter from making sure you have wood to clearing the drive of all possible obstacles to get in the way of the snow plow. it is a process to be ready for winter in more than physical ways... you have to prepare mentally too...dark, snow, ice and all that.... but winter is beautiful too!

Bob Crane its not only home, we have to think of 'Mindset' too.

Sometimes, early sunset and shorter days do impact the energy level - so adding little EXTRA exercise should help.

We just had our exterior trim painted and fresh caulking all around where needed. We also changed the weather stripping on a couple of doors.
