Antarctica Facts

It's bigger than we both thought :D Article from NASA here. Here it looks like we are going to get some early snow--it's not in the forecast but the local road crews have put down salt and that usually means it will snow, no matter what the forecast is. I have a theory it's some old guy with a bad knee that tells them he's "getting that twinge" so they go run the de-icer over the roads. I still haven't raked leaves, repotted a plant, or even mowed in back, so of course it will snow. I did order a birdbath de-icer from Webb's Water Gardens, but otherwise I am in denial about the whole winter thing.
