Happy October!

It's finally October. The weather is cooling off, and the trees are changing colors.  Here is a checklist to go through as the new season begins.  

• Check safety devices such as the smoke alarm and carbon monoxide detector.  Your fire extinguisher should also be up to date.
• Check your furnace before you get ready to fire it up in about another month or so.
• Cover or store your outdoor furniture and grills... unless you're still enjoying bonfires at night!
• Shut off faucets and store hoses for winter.
• Collect your leaves and try not to let them get overbearing in your yard.
• Clean your area rugs and carpets. 
• Lastly, of course decorate for Halloween!

So enjoy this month of October filled with all fun fall things, and remember to check off some of these things along the way!
