Taking Advantage of the Beautiful Fall Weather

September 28th - Saturday - Beautiful Fall Day

We have had a beautiful week here in Northern Pennsylvania and Lou and I have taken full advantage of  every day.

Isn't this mum just beautiful?  Our granddaughter brought this down to us last Sunday.  She always remembers her mother and me when it comes to the fall and how we always purchase mums to decorate with and this year, she bought us huge mums.  It is so nice to have her at home and attending college close to home.  She has been helping me do an album through Shutterfly.  She gave up her Sunday afternoon and then again her Wednesday afternoon, but by golly it is all done and has been ordered.  She worked this into her school schedule along with her play practices and her studying.  I am a fortunate grandma!!  Lou and I went to see the play tonight and she did a very good job playing Effie Goodwin.

Lou and I have washed the house down and washed the windows along with washing the garage down on the outside using a power washer.  Once that two day project was completed, I set about getting my fall decorations out and now it looks a little more like fall at our home.

We have been eating lunch on the back deck with this view.

Lou was finally able to get the grass cut, we had let it go to get repairs done to the barn in preparation for the painting job.  I have also cut down some of the spent flowers and need to get the ones on the other side of the driveway.  Hopefully, will be able to get that done this week.  

We spent one day with Donnie trying to get a couple of his jobs out of the way and decided that he would have to hire someone to complete one of them.  Now to get someone to do the work, that seems to be a problem for everyone.  Krista and Steve met us at the barn to install new wipers on the RV and I just had to snap a picture of Matthew as he perched on a block of wood

He is telling us the sound the tractor says........
