That's when they change the few traffic lights in town on the Barrier Island to blink.....the bonus is they also change the speed limit signs from 35 mph to 45 mph !
Be still my heart !

I'm always glad to see the tourist season end here too. We get our streets and beaches back.

I'm assuming that's when all the "bennys" & "shoobies" have gone for the winter? Must be a nice change.

Tourist season never ends in New Hampshire. Summer is weekend campers, Fall is leaf peeping season, Winter is skiing, and Spring is, ummm, black fly season, or as we like to call Spring, mud season!

Fall really starts on October 13 this year. Pheasant season opens and I get to go play with my 84 year old father.

If you make it as far down as Barrington I'll keep my ears peeled for the sound of horsepower!

When the wind blows just right I can hear the dragsters at N.E.D.More than a few miles away.

Never made it for the ride. Found the mower needed my services!

It will make the trip to Bedford, MA next Sunday for a very important event for us. Vettes for Vets at the VA Hospital. I hope it's OK to post this link. https://www.bedford.va.gov/features/VettestoVets.asp

Let me know what to look for if anyone here attends!

Beach crowds are pretty much gone for the season, can actually drive with no hassle from Rehoboth, to Dewey, to Bethany, to Fenwick beaches, to down the Ocean City inlet. Yeah....
