Our local area water table is 7 feet below normal.
Quite dry.

Autumn in our neck of the woods is (to me) shorter in temperatures and leaf colour than other parts of Canada where I've lived. Strange as this may seem to some people, after experiencing many years in various parts of Canada...I feel I "know" Canada in ways I never dreamt of compared to if I had I lived all my life in only 1 region of Canada.

And to experience it all from the bike saddle, is a special treat.
