Autumn is in the air.

Summer has flown by and soon it will be Autumn.  I love pumpkins, Halloween and everything that goes with fall.  I will be decorating soon.  Summer was very wet here and chilly at night.  Not very good for the garden.  I have been working on my long list of things I had to accomplish before the snow flies and they are all crossed off.  We have a few little things to do yet but it was a struggle with the constant rain to accomplish anything outside. This was our second summer here and we planned to get mostly everything done.  Next summer we have a few things we plan to do but nothing major.  I have been working on bears and other critters when I have time.  Last weekend I took Harriet, Roseanna, Gerald and Elaine to The Boston Road Collection.  Roseanna has already been adopted and I am hoping the other three will have a home soon.  I don't always have a lot of time.  Fred and I moved my Mother to an apartment near here so it is easier to spend time with her.  Watching my grandson is a great joy in my life.  He is always smiling and so happy.  He has allergies and the poor boy doesn't let that get him down.  I am amazed at his laughter.  He thinks the simple things are funny and he makes me laugh out loud with him.    I hope everyone has had a wonderful summer!  Have an amazing Labor Day holiday weekend and enjoy family and friends.  ~Carol
