Hunters Return

The hunters returned from Canada last Friday. Eric spent 70 hours in a tree stand. Yes, he kept track. Below is all the wildlife he saw. I treated them to homemade waffles with blueberry sauce that I made from the blueberries we picked in August. I didn't have any but, breakfast sure looked good.
I did get some work out of Eric. He trimmed down all the perennial gardens. I'm not sure if it's the correct thing to do. Mick's cut everything down the last 3 years & every spring all plants come back. Also, the yard looks so much better in the winter.
Tomorrow Mick & I are going to the last - thank goodness last - home game for the SU football team. At least we have tailgaiting to look forward to. The game not so much. Sunday I'll start the Thanksgiving preparations! I can't wait. Hope you have a great weekend.

I'm back! I took an unexpected blogging break and my time off was great. Thanks to everyone who inquired about what happened to their GEL-Oh.

I went to visit Mom for two days last week with the idea of taking photos of all the beautiful fall & Thanksgiving displays in her home. Part of my blogging break was due to issues I had with my camera. I always take photos using manual settings & I played around with so many settings I couldn't get any decent photos. I think over the weekend I figured out my problems. So over the next several days you will be seeing some bad photos.

Frost on the mums.

Wordless Wednesday

Veterans Day

Take time today to remember all that have served

& all that are currently serving.

Fall Leaves

Amie was missing the beautiful fall leaves of the north country. So, I sent her a felt leaf garland. She will hang the leaves on her bedroom window. Any excuse for me to get my felt fix.
I actually have another idea. I'm going to be sending her some snow next month.

Packing Up

My station wagon left for Canada on Saturday morning, FILLED with hunting equipment.
A quick review to make sure they had everything they needed to get their Canadian licenses and the documentation to transport guns into Canada.

I didn't ask what would be necessary to bring deer back with them. I hope it won't involve putting an animal on the roof of my car.

It's beginning to look a lot like...........

This is what greeted me when I left for work yesterday morning.
