Pick Up Sticks...

Another cool morning
that added energy to my day.



After chores I helped Gary
move branches over to the lane area
 so we can throw them on a truck.
We will keep some of the bigger pieces for burning.

 At 1:30 I drove over to Carina's for a pig roast.
This sweet "fairy path" (with solar lighting) is between her house and her mother's (who just moved in).  The kids can travel in between.  Such a good idea.
 All kinds of food and family friends.
 My favorite model was in her playhouse and did not want her picture taken.
 The chickens did not care.



 I did manage to get a quick shot of Levi....Clara's little brother.
 From there I went to Wegmans and dropped off a couple political signs.
'Tis the season and things are heating up in our local campaign.
 Back at the farm, the dogs were waiting for me to take them out for a romp.
The temperature was a little warmer.  
There was a note in the door from a man who would like the biggest section of the tree that was cut down.  His father is a woodworker and they both do some milling.  Tomorrow morning they will come over to get it.   Should be interesting since it must weigh well over a ton.  If they can pull this off it will save us a lot of work.


 I had chore duty tonight.





 As we get into fall, the light gets more and more beautiful.  The inside of the barn feels
so good.




 For some reason, Little Wonder thought this table (leaning up against the barn porch)
 was very interesting.
 He would not leave it alone.

 I did finish the butternut squash soup that was started yesterday.  Had to add two cups of cider.
 A simple supper served with bagels on the side.
 A perfect soup day.
The dogs had cooked carrots on top of their food.
They were happy.
Today I brought most of our plants in the house.
They have been on the porch since May.  The house felt so different without them.

 I posted a picture of Gary on FB for his birthday and this one to thank everyone for the good wishes.  He got so many comments and likes!!!!! He could not believe it.
Love this photo.
Night all.

I love the photo too - Gary looks so dashing and dapper for his day!

Glad all is well there. Chilly here too, and your meal is perfect at the end of the day. --I wonder what Little Wonder found so interesting??

Another lovely day at the farm. It must be cooling down by now, others have mentioned downright coldness!!! But further north than where you are. Maybe LW could smell an insect, a mouse? or something in the food department?

I have some large trees that should probably be cut down. We had to cut a large box elder down yesterday on the fence line. So much work!
Love the shot of Gary! I also see photos of him working on your blog...he is all dressed up!

The fairy lighted path is a great idea. I wonder if LW smells food on that table and that's what's so interesting.
