Packing and Unpacking

  I've packed up the warm weather clothes and hauled all the coats and sweaters up from the basement. Ken put away most of the lawn chairs and carried all the petrified wood to the garage, last year a couple rocks cracked from the snow. We've had days of strong winds, so most of our leaves are no longer in the yard, so that's a plus. The cat has two warm beds made in the shed. I guess we're ready.

Misery

Looks can be deceiving

This reminded me of a pig's butt, see the little tail?

Lazy Weekend

It's a beautiful day, supposed to freeze by morning. One family member is gallivanting around Long Island with his sweetheart, the other is driving to Ithaca to pick up his long awaited, rebuilt motor. I'm sewing buttons on shirts and feeding the dog Cheerios.

At the height of winter, the sun will appear to be setting behind the tree on the far left.

Ken's favorite apples

These were extra sweet, and so purple they seemed to be black

Searching for apple trees

I love their expressions
