Uninvited Guests

It was an interesting weekend!  Saturday morning we had a couple of deer taking laps around the neighbors house.  They hung out for 10 minutes or so, then headed up the street.  We spent the day working on the docks.  Building a temporary structure to raise the boatlift out of the water.  After dinner we settled down on the sofa, when we heard a unique sound... I'll let the pictures tell the story.

November, already?

I can't believe it's already November 4th! Summer was way too short this year, autumn was way too short this year, this year was way too short this year. I guess I am getting old... time is just flying by.

But with November upon us, it's almost time for Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to some good turkey this year. We might actually have thanksgiving dinner either at our house, or up to the lake this year. We have done it before with just a few visitors, buit this year it looks like we would have a houseful if we do it. Of course we would break out the Brined Roasted Turkey recipe. There really is no better way to cook a turkey. Not sure what stuffing we would do though. Probably go with a traditional sausage stuffing. My mouth is watering already with 3 weeks to go.

Reflection

It's funny how times (people) change?

The Post About Nothing

Nothing! That's what I have to talk about. Well it seems that way anyway. I actually have had a busy few weeks, but nothing really seems worthy of writing about. The moose was exciting, but since then I have been racking my brain to come up with something interesting to write about.

Like I said, it's been a busy week, I even made a trip to NYC to see the Yankees in game 1 of the ALCS (thanks Tom.) They won, it was a great game. It was a little cold for baseball, but still, a great game. But other than that, it's just normal day to day stuff. Yard work, work work, getting ready for winter, etc...

Maybe that's it? It's the change of seasons. The weather has turned too quickly from summer to fall. In fact, we kind of skipped fall all together. It's cold! The days are short, and I miss summer already. We are in limbo between summer and winter.

Sot that's it, no pictures, no tale of a trip that we have taken, no witty story about something funny that happened. I've got nothing, it worked for Seinfeld, I figured I would give it a try... Enjoy.
