The Day After Tomorrow

Another day in the high 60s

and now we are going to have rain for three days.  On Thursday we are headed for winter temperatures. I'm still not used to the change in my morning routine, and neither is Little Wonder.  

Darryl and John arrived at one for some music.  Gary is in Florida and Nancy could not make it.  We messed around with a few songs and started on this one....very loose.......

Sidney spent a lot of time outside and was even in the barn while I was there.   Eventually he did come back in the house

I cleaned out the run-in by the grooming room (now I'm stiff)

and plan to store the lawn tractors and mowers in there.  Mulched all the manure left in the pastures and they are in excellent shape.

LW was panting.

Gary did a lot of pruning in the garden between the driveways and has been back to hanging out on the porch.

We had leftover corn chowder and 

a salad for dinner.

I have found someone to take my older hay for some 4 H goaties and it will be gone on Saturday.  Half of the good stuff will be split between Andrea and Buddy's new farm.  I just found out today that he will be moving there on Thursday, and will go out to Glen Darach to pick up his tack trunk and grooming tools tomorrow.  A change for him, but I think he will like being with another horse.

Night all.

 

Red Sky

Wow!  Sunrise was very dramatic around here and there were all kinds of photos posted on FB from this area.

The moon was still in the sky,

Once again my back was bugging me.  This time I worked it out with stretching and walking.  I even rode my trike around the driveway in my PJs.

At one point the temperature was around 72 degrees and absolutely gorgeous all day.

At 3 I went to my appointment with the massage therapist.  Boy did I ever need it.

Hopefully I can stay ahead of these back issues.  (Muscular....probably because I am tight from not doing all the physical stuff in the barn where I would loosen up each morning).

On the way home I stopped at The Rooster for a large pizza with one topping for ten bucks.  A deal I could not pass up.

So much beautiful light again.

Night all.

 

Winter Serenades

Cooled off a little today but we did hit 50 degrees at one point.

Jackie's plant for Rebel is still looking great.

Late morning I made a big pot of corn chowder as we were going to be busy with Winter Serenades late afternoon.

Little Wonder and I drove Gary down to St. Lukes at 1:15.

Went back to the farm for awhile and dropped LW off...

then went back for the concert at 3.

Gary made the usual introductions,

Today Chris Wilson was on tap,  He was born in Brockport, went to school here and once he got into music, started writing and performing all over the world.  Our community loves him and the place was packed!  He moved back here several years ago and is loaded with followers.  I have posted his music many times, between Summer and Winter Serenades.  Hanny, were you listening?

A standing ovation.

Afterward there was a reception with cider and snacks.

I had the opportunity to have great conversations with my two pals, Mariah and Jackie.  Both of them have retired from the dance department at the college and they are my kind of people. So supportive.

Of course the time change makes dinner time different.  Just before we ate, the light on the west side of the house was off that charts.

Glad I did not have to start dinner from scratch.

Night all.
