Full moon


was in Grand Junction CO Thursday night. caught the full moon rising over the book cliffs. was quite big! a very bright night. driving on full moon nights is always a favorite. Snowmobiling was a favorite, but alas, I no longer have one. now I just drive on tires.

Pumpkins Galore!




Went to the pumpking patch with D&D and the girls. wandering the fields.. in search of the perfect pumpkin... or the great pumpkin! D's girls are younger than P, and much more high strung. no suger added for them! lol, lots of fun and energy in the patch. It was a nice sunny day to start. clouds and wind build later in the day. a passing storm again. We all drive from field to field. five acres all together. D went down a little used path and almost got his truck stuck. thank goodness for four wheel drive. got a little mud on the tires. :) Well we picked out our pumpkins. the kids finally got it limited to one each. That is always a challenge. :) Then home ward to carve them out!

our first snow in October


the snow finally came, all light and fluffy looking. I still do like the first snow. We are at about 8100 feet elevation here. so I bet we'll get a lot of snow. although last weekend Denver had a wet heavy snow and we again seemed to be in a bubble and had none.

Sorry so long...

Well, what a last couple of months! School starts, we move, my father in law passes away, then we decide to put P in a different school. and finally I have internet again!
