FALL FOLAGE AND MY NEW CAMERA










This is the restaurant that Pete took me to for my Birthday.

And now the camera wars are on to see who takes the best photo.




The days have been very sunny and warm.  We are finally seeing the end of our busy season at the conference center and are looking forward to normal hours.  We have taken a couple of hikes to enjoy all the beautiful fall days.  It is Birthday month and Friday we are going to a hockey game to celebrate some more birthday.  It will be our first hockey game, so we will take Holly's new camera and have some blog pictures for your entertainment.

    The colors are phenomenal! The new camera really is taking clear shots, too. Very nice. Happy birthday! Those red berries are amazingly luminous. Thanks for posting these pics. (This is from Linda M. in No. Calif.)

The Trip Up North, which was really South

First we had to put all of this....... Into this moving van. The loading of the moving van went pretty well. We were delayed a bit the next morning with finishing up, but not too badly. Our first major destination was Sheffield Iowa to visit the farm and town where Holly's father grew up. Downtown Sheffield, where "Frankie" was the terror of the town. This is the farm house and one of the barns of the famous family farm. The family that now lives and farms the place were super friendly and invited us in for the evening. We enjoyed a great conversation over chocolate cake with red rasberry sauce made from berries grown on the farm. MMM Delicious. The town was surrounded by corn fields, in fact the whole state was surrounded by corn fields. Many a small child has been lost in these fields. They eventually are found, and the only damage done is they suffer from a desire to tell really corny jokes the rest of their lives. I am clearly a decendant of a child lost in co

Howdie Ya'll, It has been a busy few weeks with wet, foggy, sleeting weather to boot. We are both excited because we have decided to relocate to North Dakota, (yes, we know how cold it can get). Pete has 5 months work already scheduled and there is a carpenter / Contractor shortage in that area due to the recent oil boom and resulting housing shortage. CA home building hit the wall about two years ago with no resurgence in sight so we figure we will make a go of it there and see what God has planned for us. We put our house on the "For Sale" block and have been moving at lightning speed to have it ready for showing. So far 2 buyers have been through. We also have been working on the Bailey Meadows Cabin to prepare it for sale. We have FINALLY completed sanding the floors and sealing them, (Pix will be on next post), and painting, replacing doors, completing siding, etc, etc, etc... Now we are deciding what to sell, give away, or take with us as we plan to load up the
