The Daily Dose: The Nov. 9 edition
The Daily Dose is a look at traffic, weather, what you may have missed and what's coming up on St. Peters Patch. This is the Nov. 9, 2011 edition.
The fall sports seasons are ending at the schools and the winter sports are just starting to gear up. But fall still has plenty of kick left in it. The wet weather appears ready to let up just in time to honor those who have served in the armed forces for Veterans Day on Friday.
Then, there's those leaves still hanging on to the trees. I can't decide if I want them to fall and get it over with, or hang on for another week to continue providing me with an excuse not to rake the leaves.
