New England
#8695 - 10/11/03 02:11 PM

For those of you in the rest of the country, New England is in for a glorious Fall. The heavy rains have passed, there's a bumper crop of acorns and fat, sassy squirrels (good thing I'm a retired hunter or those same fat creatures would be bubbling in a Brunswick stew) and the leaf color is predicted to be fabulous. Already, even here in southern Connecticut, the first oaks are turning; things are further along up north. New England has it's drawbacks-March comes to mind-but right now, right here, it's the best place on earth.
And of course, if you hurry, you can join in the heartbreak of the Boston Red Sox. As I write, they're one run ahead of the goddamned Yankees but we know what will come of that. The certain knowledge that our beloved will, somehow, someway, find a way to lose,adds to the core of this place (crowd noise from the TV, so I'm signing off-hope springs eternal).

Mike, I forgot to mention that the striped bass are massing, swarming along the coast, getting fat for their migration south. Possibly the best possible reason to hit Martha's Vineyard right now.

ps. And my Red Sox did lose, naturally.
