This is the view on this gray, blustery fall day. I was out to do chores and had to take some pictures of the geese. There have been a lot of Canada Geese flying over the river and resting here at night. Today we have a very miserable north wind with periodic rain/sleet/snow. The perfect day to stay inside and make a big pot of bubbly soup, fresh bread, and apple crisp. In addition to the wild geese overhead, there is the ever present flock of ducks underfoot. We've decided that we will butcher them soon, they make an awful mess in the chicken coop, and I don't look forward to that for the winter.
I also had to post a followup to my previous
two left feet post. I have further discovered that one of the boots is a size 7, and the other a size 8. This works well if I manage to get the 8 on my right foot, if not there is some discomfort and a hitch to my walk. Such was the case this morning when I was out in the pasture, Nate had a laugh and head shake at me.
Hee-haw is not a fan of the snow. But of course he won't leave the gate when there's still a chance that I'm bringing a treat!
Finally, here's a picture of Chase (4months) and Isaiah (two weeks shy of 1 year) yesterday. The boys and I spent the night at Taryn's in Duluth. 4 boys under four keeps one (or three adults) busy!
