Blog Guelph: 10/31
The thrift stores are a flurry of activity today as Guelphites clammer to pull off their creepy costumes for the first big, pre daylight savings time 10-31 in my memory. Yes folks, our clocks have yet to fall back meaning it will be light longer than ever tonight.
So here's the question of the day? Will parents buckle to the incessant pleas of their ghostly brood and hit the streets before sunset or try to restrain the eager alter egos until dark of night?
So you know, I've got my money is on the buckle factor.
AND - thanks to the 'it's happening faster than we ever imagined global warming' we will also enjoy unseasonably warm temperatures.
How scary is that. Boo Hoo.
So then, and on a more cheerful, helpful Blog Guelph note, if you happen to be one of the poor misfits that didn't scoop a mullet wig at VAVA Village or mistakenly dumped the Hallowe'en costume bag during spring cleaning, today's series of photographic brilliance will provide you with some easy solutions to your tricky day.

Blog Guelph: Happy New Year!
It has always seemed odd that we would celebrate the new year at a time when darkness prevails and frostbite is easier to come by than a bar in downtown Guelph. I do realize that most folk believe you can't mess with calendar dates but I'm simply not most folks. I k now you can. I do it all the time.
For me - September marks the end and beginning of a life cycle that beats my drum. There is energy in the air. People are refreshed.
So then - Happy New Year. May this fall lift you up.
Blog Guelph will once again be posting the photos that you take of our fine location on this currently parched patch of earth. The current plan involves a team approach by Downtown Lynn and myself sharing the posting duties.
If you want to advertise on Blog Guelph - we currently get 10,000 monthly visits - then you really should talk to me. The rates are monthly and oh so reasonable. Send an email to artjam at artjam dot org.
If you want to join the ranks of the subscription holders - a fine way of telling us you LOVE BLOG GUELPH - then click the PayPal button in the top left side bar. You'll get better karma.

Blog Guelph: Yellow Yellows
Today's set of photos is self serving.
I find November grim and difficult to get through. Instead of crawling under a rock and hiding away, I decided to treat myself to a sea of yellow photos!
I hope you find cheer in these yellow slices of Guelph.

Blog Guelph: Honey-Glazed Leaves
Rain, snow, hail, wind and sun pretty much cycled through Guelph the last few days on an hourly basis. One friend told me how he went to work in shorts only to find snow covering his car at quitting time.
Kinda funny...unless you're the guy with bare legs.
