A touch of fall






The weather has decidedly cooled the past two days. We have been busy at home this week. Gary has started a new bed of perennials and has been busy doing yard and garden work. Louise is back to knitting again. Today we spent a great day with Meghan and Ryan, starting with a breakfast by Chef Gary of blueberry pancakes, and scrambled eggs for Ryan. We watched a movie this morning, The Greatest Show on Earth. The kids seemed to enjoy this old circus story. This afternoon we went to Portage where they played near the water, but did not venture in to swim as the air temperatures was a bit cool. Last night we covered the tomatoes, cucumbers, and some of the flowers as frost was predicted. It is hard to believe that we have gone from sweltering to frost danger in one week! Lastly we share a picture of Steve McQueen protecting Louise's sneakers.
