LOTS'A LUCK!

REMEMBER THESE?

OHIO BUCKEYES, HUSKS SPLITTING OPEN...

...YIELDING...BUCKEYES!

...THE PERFECT BUCKEYE FOR GOOD LUCK

Sunday,  8:30 AM.  39 degrees at the ferry dock, 36 on the back porch.  The wind is SW, very light with light to moderate gusts.  The sky is still overcast, the humidity is 70% and the barometer is trending down, presaging more rain sometime tomorrow.  Last night the temperature got down pretty close to freezing, and I have started bringing plants in for the winter.
   It is Applefest parade day morning, and the truck has to be decorated for the parade, which starts at 2:00 PM.  With some luck it won't rain.
   Speaking of luck, remember the post of September 26, about Ohio buckeyes?  Well, the buckeye (Aesculus glabra) fruits have been sitting on the living room table since then, and yesterday the soft, leathery husks split open, most containing one buckeye, some two, and I now have a whole handful of  buckeye good luck charms.  The best one is already in my pocket.
