Yes, I assumed you put up your wood a year in advance..we burned wood for many years, so I know that is usually how it is done. When you said you put up a year in advance, I assumed it was an extra year...

I am so sorry about your " flying critters".

The geese were flying overhead to the South this morning, it is so pretty to watch them fly in a V formation. They had been hanging around in local fields all week.

I think I am going to give my lawn its final, light mowing this morning. Not enough to really cut much but enough to clip the tops off this final round of dandelions.

Geese..I wish I could see that. (the geese) Here I do not see that. I did all the time in Illinois.

The bees were getting into my hummingbird feeder, so I put in special flowers to keep them out...somehow 3 got in anyway, so I emptied out for the season. We are close to them going further south anyway, but I thought to give them some extra food for their trip. But oh well, I hope someone else with feeders does not have a bee problem.

The bees are more plentiful this time of the year it seems Junie. I see more on my sunflowers than I did on the other flowers all Summer.

The grass got its final cut for the year....I hope the snow holds off for awhile yet though.

My neighbor has fur trees.and so.she has several hummingbird feeders. So I am thinking my HBs can go there for some extra food.

But yes, I had very few bees this summer here as well. I was.surprised when.they began feeding on my HB feeder.

Yes, I would have made brownies...BUT my SIL does not "do" chocolate. ( or peanut butter ) And then, guess what ? When I was in the grocery store Val called me and said she would bring dessert.YAY !!
I did buy some ice cream cups to go with.

That is ok about the vehicles, Sunny. Rod can do it.

It happens every few years, it is strange to see. They bounce back in the spring once again.

We had some nasty thunderstorms last night. GG couldn't sleep with all the noise and flashes.

We were supposed to have thunderstorms here for the last few days..none yet.
Although a strong wind knocked down a tree at my DD's in-laws, and took out 2 grain bins on monday.

That's a mess to deal with.

It is a dry day today but they are calling for heavy rain all weekend. I am hoping for a dry week ahead so I can take out the table saw and start GG's new flooring. I need two dry days in a row for that....then 3 dry days in a row for mine.

Today we had to pick up the kids at noon. Then we kept them until after their mom & dad had the school conferences for all the kids.

I had supper in the crock pot, so at least that was taken care of.

It was raining off and on all day.

It is cold and damp today. It's going to be a baking day I think....cookies and bread are on the list.

Mmmmmmm homemade bread..we eat that here like candy.

It is in the 40's here today. I so dislike winter. I hope it holds off for awhile yet.

I must look at the remnants of my tomato plants, to see if I have a few red tomatoes. I do have a few green ones, but they will not turn red. SIL is going to try to make green tomato relish, so if he does I will give them to him.

I have never made homemade bread but I sure love eating it. I try not to be tempted to buy any because I'll eat the entire loaf.

Our weather is supposed to starting cooling. It's so dry so it's a good thing.

I have very seldom made any yeast dough. There is a whole wheat recipe where one adds the yeast to flour, that I used to make a lot though. Rod usually makes the white bread.

But yes, I too eat far too much of homemade bread.

Cool fall day here today, Sheri. IMO Fall is the best season of them all.
