the rain in spain

Does anyone else have recollection of it raining this much in October in MN? I swear, it smells like spring! For weeks, we've seen buckets upon buckets be poured onto our beautiful campus. I must say, the assortment of colorful umbrellas has been a lovely site to see. Each time the clouds roll in, the leaves shake with fear and fall to the ground. I think we can officially say goodbye to fall.
