Despite heavy rains this morning, the sun broke through, the temperatures rose, and it turned out to be a nice autumn day.   I checked the thermometer midday,  and it was 61 degrees!

Out front, the trees are almost bare and the leaves are ready to be raked up for compost.

As I cleaned around the kitchen,  I scrubbed the kitchen windows and brought out the tripod to see what birds I could catch at the feeders,    One more week till Feederwatch!

After a few brief errands,  we were settled back in at home,  and George started putting together a homemade pizza.  We bought the toppings a week ago,  and had just never gotten around to making a dough.    It occurred to us that the breadmaker might have a setting that would work,  and it did.     It made a delicious hearty crust,  and with all those toppings,  a delicious meal!

Your area looks very similar to ours. Rained today too, but we were at Lake Erie, and had sun for a while. It’s cool here tonight and we have the wood stove going. I too washed some windows yesterday so I can photograph birds better with out all the spider webs.
My oh my that pizza looks delicious!
