First Big Chill To Finally Hit.

There are a number of amazing things going on this weekend in Dallas. The State Fair just ended its first week of a 3-week run. The auto show is going on at the KBH Convention Center. Pumpkins at Dallas Arboretum number 50,000.  FC Dallas, Ranger Baseball, Football, both college and pro-teams, and other things around the metroplex and the big OU/Texas Cotton Bowl Game was a big hit already. Top Celebs on stage. Basically, something for every one.

And, of course, there is food to be had around every corner.

On scouting missions, the train tracks for TEX rail has now entered in restricted parts of DFW property south of Airfield Drive West.The work on the Cotton belt coming to DFW from Plano track along Belt Line Road is showing signs of work getting underway. Orange Barrels come in here and go up over there. It's not going to be just a summer project, either. At the old Texas Stadium site, Irving has started work on "their bridge" project to bridge across the Carpenter  to connect the two properties that will be developed. Dallas Metroplex IS a bridge Metroplex. No, that isn't a typo. And while Tex DOT has been counting and logging bridges, they added  a few hundred more with the 183, Horseshoe, 35 Express Lanes and 35 to Denton projects.

If you can't have fun with one of these somehow, somewhere here in Dallas, then you must be an alien from another planet. Unless,you are the original, ALF. In that case, we already know you are here by the jokes. Did I mention the Petite Palace in Tent at The Cultural Bath House at White Rock Lake? Check it out. It's funny.

Clouds Mimic roof shapes. 

Awesome clouds over Dallas the past three days with more to come.

Big puffy billowing type clouds

Even the birds know something is up. After the heavy rain due Tuesday, the real feel of fall is on the way for next two weekends. It's going to get interesting. My thermometer on the porch will not read 80/95. According to the weather man, it's gonna say 52/70!!!! Bring it on!!! This stretch has lasted for six solid months and I'm tired of
