		<description><![CDATA[Here it is fall 2009 already.  I don&#8217;t know about you, but it sure did sneak up on me. Someone sent me an email the other day asking for more trip advice. My post last year on North Texas drives for fall foliage stands the test of time and is still good advice.

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t often write first-person accounts of what I&#8217;m thinking on a given day. For one thing, I don&#8217;t think many people care.  Second, the sort of mundane gruel I pump out here doesn&#8217;t require much explanation.
