Indian Summer

Beautiful days have followed days of rain. Today was an awesome fall day, no clouds in the sky, 80 degrees for a high temperature and looking to a night with crickets, frogs and 50's for good sleeping.

My friend Kim and I went to Shipshewana today for the last flea market trip of the year. At least I think it will be the last for the year. The vendors really start to disappear as the days get shorter and the temperatures get cooler. Its nice to not have to fight the crowds.

Follow up on Caitlin's purse theft last week, our car insurance won't cover the theft since there wasn't any damage to the car. So if the thief would've broken the window to take her purse, we wouldn't have to pay a dime.

The St. Joseph County Road Commission is tearing apart the Langley Covered Bridge to repair it. It looks pretty strange with only the 'skeleton' left. I have to go take more pictures of the process. The last time the bridge was refurbished was about 10 years ago. The work they are doing this time is supposed to last longer than 10 years. Come to think about it, the last time they worked on in was during fair week too, just like this time.
