I had the Scott Hamilton quote on the wall of my office when I was the volunteer coordinator at the county-owned nursing home. It received many positive comments from potential volunteers.

All the quotes are outstanding, Lilo. Thanks.

Lilo, I'm sorry I don't always respond to the quote(s). You do a great job-- and it's appreciated, too.

Hope you're still getting some rain in your area. We are due for some, tonight and maybe thru the weekend. The temp is pleasant, tho, in the low 70s, yesterday, and 60s, today. We've had a very nice Fall; many of the trees are still green and have leaves, while others are completely bare. I like living where there are four distinct seasons.

Great quotes, lilo.
I agree with the Joe Clark quote. Having been in a lot of competive sports, I know that a defeat it just the next step to a win the next time.The people who swallow their defeat, defeat themselves.

I don't know about the Swift/Franklin quote. I expect some return for my labor, even if it is just a cleaned up garden.

mwheel, I hope you don't get tomorrow today's weather from KY. We have a poster November day. Wet, cold, grey in grey, fog and besides water it rains leaves.

I don't know about the Swift/Franklin quote either. At least I expect what I've been promised.
Weather, perfect temperature , 73 degrees, fall colors, leaves are falling. .It is fall.
Beyond all this beauty is the worrying about getting some rain.
