OCTOBER - Canadians will be giving thanks on the 14th and many of us will be getting ready for Halloween: carving pumpkins, buying candy, working on a great costume. After a very hot summer the leaves are finally starting to turn into beautiful fall colors and the days will keep getting shorter and cooler. Enjoy the fall.

We started a new section called Letters to the Editor where we will share some of the comments we've received from readers.
Another feature is our "Funny Quote of the Day" so be sure to keep coming back to the Funny Bone.

As always, this magazine is for you and by you. We are always looking for input from our readers, both SSBBWs and FAs. If you have suggestions, comments or want to see something specific let us know.

So sit back, grab a coffee and enjoy your stay.
