Almanac
Thu., Sept. 1, 2005
September is the month for moving indoors, saying goodbye to long evenings on the patio, hot, sunny afternoons in the pool and a leisurely summer schedule.
Things to do around the house in September:
Outside
Have the chimney inspected and cleaned.
Put away window screens and put up storm windows.
Clean gutters before fall rain.
Inside
Have the furnace inspected.
Clean ducts.
Have carpets cleaned.
Local journalism is essential.
