Where did the Fall Go!

In a shocking development, school started and I had zero free time.  Throw in some fun mystery illnesses and fall was over before it started.  I feel like I missed a whole season.  I missed apple picking, hiking, Castle in the Clouds, the Regatta, leaf peeping, and everything else that defines the fall season in New England.  Despite missing out on those things, we did manage to squeeze some city fun into the last few months (thanks to JO's insistence that I put the school work away from time to time) and I finally have a few free moments to catch up with the blog so here goes nothing!
