October Already!

I can’t complain, we’ve been having beautiful weather lately. Perfect for planting bulbs and just enjoying the outdoors.

It's been a beautiful fall.

Believe it or not our blueberry bushes were not affected by the few light frosts we’ve had and are still producing blueberries. Now that the garden is finished we are letting our chickens free range once again. They really love to have the freedom to wander about. They are quite funny to watch, they love the blueberries and will stand under the bushes and jump up to get the blueberries!

We’ve had the opportunity to take a few drives and enjoy the fall foliage. The colors are quite pretty this year.

Over the weekend we took a hike on the Appalachian Trail, it was a beautiful warm day and the view from Lucy’s Lookout was amazing.

We also spent some time doing some clearing and now have three very large bonfires ready for burning. We’ll wait until a wet day or when we have some snow cover to burn these piles!

In another week we’re heading to the west coast to visit all of our children who have decided to relocate there. Can’t wait to see them all, especially the grandchildren! I am very thankful for our neighbors who make it possible for us to be away, our chickens will be well taken care of!
