    Good morning all. Nice crisp morning here, we get one about every two weeks as a tease, I think Mother Nature can be a not very nice entity sometimes :rolleyes:

    Picking up pecans this fall, haven't had a good crop in about 5 years but it's looking pretty good this year.

    Happy Friday morning. A nice cool start to the day with temps in the mid50s and our high should barely make it to the mid80s. It's just too gorgeous to be inside working... so I'm taking off work at noon... plus I have a 3-day weekend. Lots of time to enjoy this beautiful weather!

    Nice day here. Spent the morning going to two yard sales. Went to breakfast,late and then to thrift shop. Found material at one yard sale, pink. Need to sort through other stuff we bought and then go plant stuff I bought yesterday.

    Good evening all. It was a nice, nippy day. Finally able to turn the AC's off for the whole day and leave the doors open too.

    I made candles instead of playing in the dirt.

    Good morning all. Today is the start of annual potato picking on my folk's farm. It may take 2-3 weeks or so. Hoping the rain stays away!
    Have a wonderful day all :stew2:

    Good Saturday morning all. Currently 9°C and cloudy. Rain in the forecast today and tomorrow so it looks like I'll be working indoors most of the day. I have gardens to clear out and bulbs to plant if it doesn't rain. Have a great day all :)

    Good morning all.
    Yet another mid to upper 80's day, clear blue sky and not a chance of rain. Today is my watering day and I have till 10 a.m. to get the front yard done. The back will be hit or miss this evening if we get home in time or it will have to wait until Wednesday. :rolleyes:

    More candle making today, today will be Bayberry, Patchouli and ummmmm, Pine I think.

    Happy Saturday afternoon. We're having a gorgeous day here. Started off with temps in the upper 50s and hasn't gotten any hotter than the mid80s. LOTS of sunshine and a mild breeze. It doesn't get much better than this! :-D
    I spent the day just piddling around... trimmed dead branches out of trees. Picked pecans. Got my Oriental Lily and Tulips in their containers. Played with the dog. And started giving everything a little drink.
    There's a few things still blooming, but I do believe most everything is starting to shut down now.

    Was a beautiful day here. Some sun and some clouds but around 80 degrees. I planted brussel sprouts, red cabbage, broccoli, and lettuce. I pulled weeds in the small back garden. I'll hoe it up tomorrow if my knees are still in working condition. I have some beans and maybe some flowers to plant in there. Spent most of the day outside.

    Good morning all. Yesterday we starting the year's spud-picking. Thankfully the weather stayed nice and we are promised pretty dry weather up until at least Wednesday. We used buckets and picked by hand but today I think the field will be dry enough that we can take out the harvester!
    Have a great day all!

    Good morning all. Today started out at 75, yesterday the high was 88 today it's supposed to go on up to 90...I don't like warm Octobers :rolleyes: Next weekend just might be better weather...cooler and wetter, maybe.

    Frank, I hope the potato harvest gets finished before the rain starts again.

    Good morning everyone, it has taken about a week but we have finally recovered from vacation. :)
    The camera worked overtime capturing just about everything we saw along the way.
    The Thanksgiving Cactus has 214 or 217 buds on it(depending on how you count. O.K. I was curious and counted them. Oh, it's an election year I hope the SFCTCB does not want a recount.
    Oh nuts, the Oak trees are falling apart again. Time to gear up for W*****.
