The snow flakes began soon after 9:00am this morning and by 11:00, you could have tracked a rabbit across the lawn. This is the way our Patio looked about 2:00pm. It tapered off and the 5 inches on the table settled down to about 3 as the temperature fell. It is to get down to 25 degrees tonight but are to have several days of Indian Summer following.
I noted son Jon's involvement in USDA organizational changes in a recent post. He has just sent the following as a follow-up:
"End of an Era, Continuation of a Legacy
Tonight, October 13, 2018, ends an era
of more than 150 years of service to the USDA Soil Conservation
Service (SCS) and Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) by the
Vrana/Flowerday family. I have carried this conservation tradition
forward for more than 42 years, the last 22 years of which have been
in Washington, DC in National Headquarters.
Tomorrow I begin my service in the
Business Center of the USDA Farm Production and Conservation Mission
Area. The business center is designed to support the agencies in
greater efficiency and effectiveness.
The NRCS, as well as the Farm Service
Agency (FSA) and the Risk Management Administration (RMA), will
continue to do their great service to the American farmer and the
taxpayer."
