Hot Mail

A hauntingly interesting picture of Grant as he checks the mail and explores the grounds at one of his favorite play sites. Grant didn't have school on Wednesday so he came to visit and supervise our daily walk. Since he has been going to nursery school we normally only see him two afternoons a week so he doesn't have much of a chance to get to all of his favorite haunts or visit his animal friends.

He certainly made up for lost time with visits to play areas and horses he has not seen for a while. The horses were thrilled to see him and kept whining at him to give them some carrots. He happily obliged them running back and forth to make sure they all got their share.

What would a walk through the valley be without stopping to see the omnipresent giraffe to discover what hat he was wearing today. Needless to say Grant had a great walk and visit with some of his friends and places.

Shots at Home

This morning I heard the woodpeckers banging away outside and Ricki and I decided to see if we could capture the little guys in a photo. Here is a picture of the little guy with a nut in his beak, getting ready for winter I suppose.

I found that they are harder to photograph than you might think. Even thou they are collecting nuts they don't stay in one place for long. While I was in the backyard I also took a quick shot of Ricki. It looks like he is concentrating on the birds too. I wonder if he wanted to take a picture of them or did he have something else in mind?

Halloween II

Last year Grant visited the Lemos Halloween Farm for the first time and this video is of his visit this year.

Elsa and Saga at 11 months

It is Sunday and we had little visitors come to see us this morning. They brought their mom with them of course someone has to drive. As you can see from the pictures they are lovely little girls with wonderful personalities.
They jointed us for a little lunch and that gave me some interesting and colorful pictures. They really enjoyed the small pumpkins we had on the fireplace hearth and Grant's race car set. Sit back and enjoy some of the pictures from today's visit.



You may want to come back later as I have a lot more pictures to add to this show!

Fall is Coming

Yes there is a a bit of fall in the air the leaves are starting to turn and the temperature has bite of coolness in it.

A old fashion rose the last one left on the plant.
