Fall Fury Begins


Fall colors have begun in earnest. Reports of peak colors in the higher elevations and colder spots like the Adirondacks. Here in the Western Vermont Champlain Valley, we enjoy a more drawn out process. Greens mixed with blazes of colors mainly reds and oranges and yellows. Warm colors to warn us of the cold future. This picture is from last year.

We canned 13 quarts of kiefer pears from our 15 year old tree that a couple years ago was tipped over and uprooted by the water coming off the hill. We propped it up much to my doubts and it has taken awhile but here we are, eating the bounty.

The air is cool and crisp and cleans out your breathing apparatus.

The weekend went by much too fast and back to work tomorrow.

The old cat cage went to a couple who have a rabbit in need of a cage. When they said they rescued the rabbit I thought of how senseless and useless a human must be to be stupid enough and cruel enough to set free a domestic rabbit. So we just had to give them the cage. It was a nice cage we had made for the cat population explosion when Captain et al were a baby cats (kittens).

Now we needed it to go somewhere and a rabbit has a nice house tonight.

Hope your crib is comfortable warm and accessible.
