My grandsons in the desert are on fall break from school.

What better way to kick off the holiday week than with a Monday movie with Mom?

Once again, I can't adequately express how thankful I am for techy ways I get to see Bubby, Mac, and Jak and know how they spend their days 800 miles away. This time, a steal from my daughter's Facebook page. (Thanks, Meg!)

Happy fall to one and all — those on break as well as those who aren't.
