What's Up~

The giant pumpkins are still growing. You can see how big this one is... placed a playing card on top to give you an idea and see the bottom peaking from under the big leaf. I thought I bought Pie Pumpkin seeds but I am beginning to wonder if they miss marked the seed package... or the horse Manure makes mutant Veggies?
Is big enough the men of the house can't pick it up.
Roma tomatoes are finally starting to turn color.
Cosmos is doing well.
Weather has been really warm here, no rain for a very long time. If I remember correctly the News said we are 14" behind what we need to have.
DS has been hoping for some rain so he doesn't have to water so much.

Not much going on...other than DH came home with a very bad cold.... in which he gave to our DS. Who wasn't all that impressed.
We had planned to go to Octoberfest but with both Men of the House sick.. we stayed home.
Wasn't a bad thing.. DH managed to get a number of the Farm chores done.

I am working on a Christmas painting. Will be of Mia the kitten, with a red ribbon around her necks and gifts all about. You can see the WIP on my Art blog.

Cats and Dogs.. funny

Over all a Grand Day Out!

DS golf day out~2nd post

You can see how nice the course is. Here is Chris getting off a good shot.
Putting~
The Hazards,, and like all good Mothers, had to capture the moment. :O)
The Sand pit- he hit the ball out the first shot. Sadly no sand spraying in all directions photographs for me. However, I do have ones of DH, so not all is lost.

DS Golf day~ 1st post

DS decided he would like to go Golfing for his Birthday. The course we usually go to had a tournament going, so we were unable to golf there.

DH called around and found another Golf course in the area and it ended up being a much nicer course.

The Golf cart was all electric and because of that non smelly, smooth going, just an over all nice cart to drive.

The course as you can see above was very nicely done, well thought out and elegant in its design.

Mia Playing

Finally was able to get a video of Mia playing. You can also see Nari our Maine coon in her harness..and Sadie our orange cat.

A nice ride out on the Farm~

Had a good ride on Dyfra today... took Ella with us... Ella her bright sheet and bell on, as Hubby saw the poachers about at 6am this morning. Rather late for poachers.

Got to prune some branches back while still on Dyfra. First time in a veryyyy long time I did that. Nice to have part of my path...well.. I know where the path was... clear.

Dyfra was a champ.. dropped some 1 to 2" limbs on her head and neck... not on purpose...she could care less.

Had to grab ahold of a very long and very thick blackberry vine... had her back up a good 50' to get it pulled out of the tree limbs. She is such a good work horse.

Ella for the most part stayed in sight of us. Normally running to catch up with us..with her bell jingling away. Both people and other animals would have to be totally deaf not to hear us coming.

Rode in the new military pants I bought... little big but will fit perfect when I start wearing double clothes in winter. Much better than sweat pants for riding in the brush. Normally the thorn bushes snag my legs.. and they didn't get me at all in these pants.Was thinking about getting some English riding pants... but I decided since I don't get to ride out with others.. military work pants make more sense.

The above picture is from a couple of years ago. Should of took the small camera out today with me but didn't think about it until I got back in. Maybe next time I will have DS take some photos of us working.
