The Leaves Are Falling-The Leaves Are Falling-Help!

It is that time of year again when the leaves go through their change and turn to brilliant colors before falling to the ground making a mess. Don't get me wrong, I have learned to enjoy the Fall season, except for the falling leaves monkey business.

I get the tractor-mower out once a week this time of year and do the chopping process. I think that is about the easiest way to do away with the leaves and at the same time put something back into the soil.

Someone asked recently how the girls are. We are happy to report that they are just fine. Both are full of the dickens and Betty's front foot has healed beautifully.




Because of all the trees on our property (thus all the leaves) we have not been hit with frost yet. A few areas that are wide open have had light frost, but it has not been cold enough here yet for a killing frost as evidenced by the flowers that are still blooming.


We are looking forward to tonight and supper with Ben and Anna. Mmmmm, pizza and beer at our favorite pizza place. It is hard to turn down multiple pitchers of beer for just 25 cents each!

Wish us luck.

Tune in again soon for another edition of "Now What Are They Doing?"
