Shorter Days

We have been told that the people working the day shift during the peak season will go to work in the dark and come home in the dark. We're not quite there yet. Daylight Savings ends on November 6, so we have another week of at least coming home in daylight. Not that it matters, really. As long as we have the full day of light on our days off, we'll take it. Besides, when we're working inside it doesn't matter. We remember last year working the night shift that we slept through most of the daylight hours anyway.

The hype is building in the Naperville area for the start of the state championship high school football playoffs. Austin's team is ready and Patty and Mark forward articles to us about the team. Here is the latest article with this quote about Austin:

“Austin Guido is as good a running back as I’ve ever coached and that includes all-state back Tommy Koutsos who I coached at Marmion. I’m not a college coach, I don’t know what they are looking for but Austin can play D-1 football. MAC for sure."


We are obviously very proud of him and are rooting for him to do well in the playoffs. We hope his team goes all the way.

We will probably head to the Louisville Costco today to pick up a few things and maybe stop somewhere along the way to enjoy what is forecast to be a nice day. It was 75 yesterday, but we had some clouds and some wind, so today should be better. There's not much else to report except that we are enjoying our free time and getting the much needed rest between work days...
