I was intrigued by a bit of lore shared in the newsletter, stating something along these lines…that you should take note of the first day there is a thick fog in August, because the same date in October will be the day of your first frost, if you live in climate that experiences frost.  If this is true, then we may be in for frost on October 2nd, as I woke up to a very misty view across the lake yesterday.  Last Friday the fog was even thicker, you couldn’t see anything at all…perhaps I have to wait for a fog like that and note the date. 

Of course this very likely will not happen, but it’s a fun bit of folklore trivia.
