Seasons go round & round..


And just like that, it’s over.   The shadows grow longer as the days get shorter.   The pitter patter of soft soled shoes on the gym floor.  The first weekend of November was truly a transition – flying in the brisk air at Woodsom Farm on Saturday and in the calm, quiet space of the Glastonbury HS  gym on Sunday.  Whew!

There’s one more chance outdoors at the Turkey Fly in Durham, CT on Nov. 17.  See you there!
