Frosty

Well. Crumby feels like the jig is up. Already, Jack Frost has visited the CB thrice. Yet those times, old Jack was just fooling. This time, tonight, he is serious. This night, the horns on the billy goats may freeze off. So if you have billy goats, better put them up if you prefer your billy goats horned or horny.

And what do you know? Crumby has not espied a hummingbird since the first week of October. Then Goddess Gracious Sakes, here one came today, slurping at the Turk's caps, which are only now flowering like they ought, only to get nipped in the bud. Mercy! The dern poor old flora in these parts don't know whether they are coming or going. Mercy me and me oh my!
