Let's talk about how great October is. The days begin to cool, the leaves change to gorgeous, and the reminder of holiday traditions fill our minds. This month we will hold our annual taco soup/pumpkin carving night with my family and we are already excited about it.
October is the best month. A great mix should accompany such a stellar month, at least, that's what I believe. I think this is a fine combination of mellow, fall-ish songs and a few tunes that keep you motivated to clean house or go for a run, and especially perfect for a road trip.

* This month's cover picture is from the recent Sarah Sample houseboat concert. After the seats were set up and before the guests arrived, I took a picture of the river to capture what a gorgeous and perfect day it was on the river.
