Beautiful Dried Up Hostas

We have some record breaking temperatures coming up in the next few days.  At least it is not humid.  The sky was so red this morning.


That was before 7am.  There was even pink light in the bedroom.
Gary went to Brockport for coffee while Little Wonder and I caught up on the news.
Eventually I took a shower and drove down to Brockport for an appointment with my massage therapist.  I missed September and October.... so my body was hurtin'.
Afterward I drove to Greece to get a couple of turtlenecks and there weren't any in the store that I went to.  It was getting late, so I picked up two long sleeved white tee shirts instead.  On the way home the sun was starting to set.

The leaves are very dry now as we need some rain.
Gary finally got the rest of the pergola garden cleared out.  That area grows weeds very well.
For some reason LW does not want to go outside when I am not home.  Don't know how hard Gary works at it.  Anyway....we went for a very short stroll.

I grabbed a couple shots of the hostas and absolutely love the colors.



We had a veggie dinner tonight.  Romaine topped with Mac salad and a side of bean salad.
Night all.
I'm sitting here wondering what is going to happen tomorrow and am writing down my predictions.
Hope you all voted.

Progress

Unbelievable weather.  Little Wonder and I were off to our usual, but different, start to the day because of the time change.



Finn came up at 10 to help us move around some stuff.  We have had a freezer in our back hall for decades and even tho it is small, always took up too much room.  As soon as I got up I emptied it out so it would defrost any bits of ice.  It was filled with ice packs and homemade sauce...lots of it!  It was very light and they moved it into Gary's barn.  I kept a few bags in the refrigerator freezer and sent some home with Finn.
They also moved a couple of dog crates into the feed room and then started taking pallets out of the stall where I stored hay. 
By then it was getting close to the high 60s and LW was panting.
Fortunately there were only 8, but they were a mess as hay was stuck to the boards.

Now they are out by the road on our lawn and I hope someone picks them up to be used as firewood or whatever.
When that was done I went for trike ride #41.

While I was gone, Gary picked over a quart of raspberries and now they are bagged and in the freezer.
We had turkey burgers on a piece of toast for lunch....
and spent the afternoon watching the Bill's game....which they won.  
It's only 7:43 and I feel like it's 10.
Night all.
PS
The goings on in Michigan are very interesting.  I hope it all backfires.

Fall Back

The sunrise was not quite as dramatic today.



Late morning I ran a whole bunch of errands and spent the afternoon doing nothing or talking on the phone.
Tonight we went to Jenny's for an early dinner so she would not have to cook after campaigning all afternoon.

Have I got a story for you.  
This morning I ordered 2 pizzas for 5pm.  It was a special...2 large with cheese for $18.99 (plus extra for toppings).  One - half pepperoni/half cheese.  The other - mushrooms and peppers.  Great!  Got there and instead of peppers, they put on pepperoni.  I did not have time for them to make another and said I would just have to take them.  The man behind me said you should be compensated for the mistake.  So I asked.  They said they would just give me a refund.  My original bill was around 28 dollars.  They gave me back 22.  I said ....no, you're kind enough to give me the refund, but that's too much.  He said I already posted the refund....it's ok.  SO, I got two large pizzas with toppings for 6 bucks!!!Happy Halloween!!!!

My first time having pizza from a restaurant and boy it tasted so good.
This guy was waiting for some crust.
While it was still light, kids started trick or treating in the neighborhood and Jenny was prepared.

Before we left, I was impressed by this bunch of bananas!


A beautiful sunset on the way home.


Don't forget to change your clocks!
Night all.
