What a month!

October is normally a great month in New England, with the leaves changing color and temperatures that are brisk but still allow you to spend time outside. This year, though, October really outdid itself.

1. The Patriots entered the month 3-0 and won 5 games, outscoring their opponents 217 to 92.

2. The Red Sox entered the month as American League East champions and holders of the best regular-season record in baseball, 96-66, and went on to win the World Series, going 11-3 in the post-season. I managed to make it to 5 of those wins at Fenway, including the two World Series home games.



3. Erica's sister got married, and we had a fantastic time over the course of the wedding weekend. My parents were even there, so we got to do some advance scouting for our wedding!



4. The weather has been great. We got to go sailing on Boston Harbor on October 27th, under beautiful sunny skies, in 20+ knots of wind, and were perfectly comfortable.

So, here's to an equally great November!
