So True, Bob. Son in law says an early winter coming. If it will get rid of these grasshoppers I'll go for it. It is funny how they are intermitted across the country. Thank goodness. They cleaned out Shirlee's garden and ate the onions clear down inside. May the fall be as beautiful as your poem. God Bless, Cile
