To-Do List 9.25.09

The leaves have just started to change here in Orono. The weather is crisp and clear. There are tons of things to do (including attending the wedding of our friend and colleague Aimee — congrats!). Does a fall weekend in Maine get any better than this? We don't think so. So to heck with the yard work — get out and enjoy yourself. There will be time for sitting around in December.

This may be the last time in a long time that we're able to grill out and actually enjoy it. So, we're going to take advantage with some thick, succulent, bone-in pork chops from Cornerstone Farm in Palmyra.
