The Weekly Round-Up for September 22, 2012

Fall greets us at 10:49 am this morning (or something like that). The leaves here in Northeast Ohio are slowly turning and I look forward to that morning when you wake up and all of a sudden the trees are awash in color. Nothing like the fall. The Weekly Round-Up is ready to go for another week. I hope you enjoy it, dear reader. Thanks for your support of the John 13:34 Blog.
