Hmm. After counting them on the ground when raking them, I’m not so happy with the autumnal time.

Driving in St. Louis is much less horrific than driving in Chicago. Probably because the population of the city proper crashed and there are a lot of blighted areas near there.
St. Louis Zoo is also worth seeing – the world’s #1 free zoo 
That’s what we did today.

Yeah, but if anyone comes to Chicago I’m always happy for a meet-up, and I can do the driving because I’m used to it.

IMHO a lot of it is driving culture. I know people from Hamilton who refuse to drive in Toronto because it’s “too scary”. But I hate driving in Hamilton for the same reasons. It’s just different cultures.

My favorite are the Japanese maples:
There’s one street I drive down to get home that has all deep orange-y yellow on one side, and deep russet red on the other. The yellow leaves have now mostly fallen, and the red will go soon too, but my word was that an incredible sight for about a week!

Thanks for sharing these occasional pictures. I’m sure it’s been an adventure for you guys. You should write a book or something like that.
I guess you can be happy that the British no longer have an empire, considering the impact of that on subject peoples… I really wish American was post-empire now.
Sorry you’re coming home to such a shitshow, though. Where to even begin with that mess? I guess maybe the fact that if there is a hard brexit, you lot will quickly run out of Mars Bars is a good place to start?

Guillotines and all, I say. There really needs to be some reparations of some sort for the blatant theft of the last few decades.

It’s a conflict as old as accounting, banking, guild laws and charters. The power imbalance of wealth has to be broken before any reparations can be imposed or agreed to.

Just don’t get a bottom salad. Those Caesar salads caused the fall of the romaine empire.
