Fall to Winter

It looks like wye're read
Dam still no fish
We hiked down to the Sugar Bush
Here's what we're Thankful for

Wow! Witch Hazel
Ready for some snow
10 inches  It time to get the snow shoes out

Susie and Nazohni hiked back with some apples for the deer
I tried the skies at sunset
not tired yet

Dusk

Santa's new home

Door to Door

After buying the Grand Hotel back in June
We bought this beautiful old door on facebook market place form a gal in Anamosa
We spent many hours removing the old paint and refinishing the wood work.
The old door is out
Measure twice and cut once.
and chisel 
And its in
And the old door found a new home too

Not What I Had Planned

The best laid plans of mice and men...
A trip to Batey Hollow to visit old Slew Foot wasn't what i had planned this morning 
but three hours later, nine buckets of creek gravel and a few rocks later
we had a start on a limestone landing for the dock.
The oak leaves had good color as I drove the southern route home
Over the gate way to the Island City
Home in time to see the Beaver moon rise.
