Not only was the weather perfect this weekend, but we sure got a lot done!
Daryl spent some time in the field disking down the corn stalks and then put the rest of the machinery away for the year. You disk the corn down to help break down the stalks and so they deteriorate over the winter. He’ll probably disk again in the spring to break them up even more. 
Even though we don’t have that many acres, it’s always nice to have everything in the shed in case the ‘s’ word happens. (snow!)
I had a chance to spend some time with the girls on Saturday and we had the best day. We went to the river to do a little shopping and we also went out for a later dinner. It was nice to hang out with them and hopefully at our next outing even more of the gang can go. 
We had hard frost these past nights and it sure made the trees turn red. When we were at the river yesterday it was a little cloudy, but with the frost last night and the bright sunshine today, the reds in the leaves really came out. Remember this tree from a couple of days ago? 
Check it out now – 
I laughed when I was trying to take some pictures of the one tree in our back yard because Checkers just was sitting so nice right beside me and I think she looked like she was wondering just what in the world I was doing
and then she went kamikaze! Poor Smoochie didn’t know what to do.
She kept picking on everyone all afternoon and I wasn’t sure if she was crabby or just wanting to play.Then later in the day everyone settled in and was nice and calm. Even though they picked their new sitting place on the table on the front porch. 
The reason they are looking for a new spot is because the porch got washed today and all the furniture is tucked away for the next couple of months. They had taken over the porch furniture from the dogs this summer but now it’s gone. Hopefully for not too long and we’ll have an early Spring and it’ll come out again.
More tomatoes got roasted and frozen for the winter 
and we also have a new window in our Old Milk House. Now this might not seem like a big deal, but for over 30 years there hasn’t been one in it 
and just like that now there is one. 
Shazam! I need to get the building painted and it’ll look really good. For now it just needs a little love.
And finally late Sunday night we had a chance to Skype with the kids. Yup, what a great weekend it was!
