October 29 | Life on a Colorado Farm

I’m sorry I didn’t get a post done yesterday, and I’m late, late, late today. For some reason we have been busy, busy, early in the morning.

It’s gradually drying up. Which is a very good thing.

It also froze Tuesday night, with another heavy freeze to come in on Friday [if I remember right], so I’ve been working hard to get my tropicals put to bed.

The canal is still running. Soon it will be turned off, the water’s voice silenced until next spring.

Stepping closer to the ending of fall, and the beginning of corn harvest. 🙂

The trees on the way to the other house are just lovely. As are the trees AT the other house.

The other house in the thicket of trees that you see across the way. Trees with lots and lots and leaves on them. It’s been freezing every night…we had 26* this morning. You and I know what that means…all those leaves are going to be falling down into the yard. What that means for me is a whole other job…raking leaves. I rather dread it. I have this yard with it’s leaves and now I have that yard. SIGH!

Anyway all I have left to paint is the ceiling in the dining room, then I’m done with the inside of the house. YAY!

Oh, yes. I still have the outside and now the yard, but I’m making headway.

Our neighbor to the south, has brought his cows home for the winter. He just put the heifers in his back field which connects to our Upper End. It’s nice to hear them talking and conversing with each other. 🙂
