October memories. When I moved from Philadelphia to Austin in 1992, I took 10 days to drive the length of the Blue Ridge Parkway in early October, stopping to hike as my mood took me. It looked like this. I still have my book of BRP hiking trails.

And when I was growing up in Dallas in the 60s, I got a day off school every fall to go to the State Fair, and it looked like this. It's nice to see some things haven't changed. Dallas is an armpit, but I'm glad I grew up a Texas Jew - it's given me a different perspective from many of my New York co-religionists. (I like the song reference too.)
