Fall leaves

Lately the air has largely remained still but today we had a fair breeze and plenty of leaves got blown from the trees. It does now feel as if nothing of summer remains and we are going to be increasingly tasting winter.

Absentee ballots

The Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has a website through which one can check the progress of absentee ballots for elections. It confirms that they are in receipt of mine and mst3kmoxie's. In general I find that American government tends to be good at providing useful information and services online.
