Fall is here, but you would never know it here in good old Boerne.  It's 90 and holding.  Course the grass is dying and in the morning there is definitely a little chill in the air, but we can't pull out our sweaters yet. 

But what we can do is get our homes ready!  Things to do to "Autumize" your home.

• Check all your windows and door locks for proper operation
• Check all your faucets inside and out for leaks.
• Make sure you have workikng nightlights at the top and bottom of stairs.
• Have a heating professional come out and check your heating system
• Have a chimney sweep check your wood burning stove, fireplace and chimneys
• Seal air leaks around your home by caulking, sealing and weather stripping.
• Check your home insulation.  This sometimes gets over looked, but it really important for saving energy
• Give your outdoor furniture a good cleaning before you put it up for the winter.

I am sure that there are other things that need to be done, so let's hear them.
