So, inquiring minds want to know….

Yesterday’s Visitors

Last week was scheduled to be great… However, Grace came down with an illness that that produced a 102 fever for 2 days.  I think Emily was trying to come down with that also as she had a low-grade fever all week.   She never made it to school.

Emily has just spent the last 3 days in pain, and I’ve been up with her for 3 nights in a row.  Not sure what is going on.  I’ve called the doctor and expect to hear from him this afternoon.

Its sunny outside and I’m still gathering tomatoes from the garden.  I love tomatoes.  We finally ate one of the watermelons and it was very sweet, but not quite ripe.  I had no idea how to tell if it is ripe.  There are 4 more out there.  I guess I’ll leave them till the vine withers.

I love fall.  The leaves are starting to change and the animals always visit our pasture.  The above picture was taken yesterday afternoon.  I think this may be the same deer that have visited before, only now there is just one baby.  He/she is loosing the spots and looking more mature now.  They stand very still when I walk out to the pasture to shoot pictures of them.  Once I’ve been there a bit and don’t move any closer they start to move around again. 

Then, quick as a wink, they are over the fence and into the little wood that adjoins our property.

Thanks for listening ~
