A Report from Earth

Above the 45th parallel north, October 20th, 2024. It is shirt sleeve weather.

The proper response should be:

A. Hit the beach
B. Gas up the power mower, weed wacker, edge trimmer and chain saw and do some chores
C. Shrug and say "hey I guess this is the new normal!"
D. Party like there is no tomorrow
E. Gas up the SUV and take a road trip
F. Plan to fly somewhere this winter to see something
G. Other

Down to 6500ft a few days ago, still there above 7500ft right now. I've been covering my tomatoes when it gets cold. Hopefully they'll be "done" by next weekend.

SW Montana.
