HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY FULL MOON!

The full moon is Thursday, 17 October, in US and UK. It's a really close Supermoon.

The Covered Bridge Festival began yesterday in my area. Two million people from Indiana and across the country will visit at least one of the festival small towns to buy arts and crafts, enjoy country foods, take bus tours, and see the covered bridges. This weekend, we have weirdly warm weather and glorious sunshine, so our highways have bumper to bumper, slow-crawling traffic and there are crowds everywhere.

i intend to remain holed up at home until the festival is over on the 20th. I went to the doctor last week, and I took the opportunity to stock up on groceries. Yesterday. I walked to the convenience store on the highway and bought drinking water, so I'm all set to stay on my patch for the duration. I gave the groundhog a carrot today. 

The festival is a badly needed boost for our rural economy, but I'll be glad when it's over.

Hugs and love to everyone!

  • Been unwell and missed my visits here - and now have to get busy with church mag for next month!  Sorry!

    ANNETTE - I do remember some things - so lovely that you can enjoy school performances now thwt MsD lives nearby!  Thinking of poor Billy the goat - I hope he will soon recover his normal health in his new home.

    Had email from Scotish Power today reminding us we are on the priority list if the coming storm brings anything our way - had forgotten I qualify for that!   All okay so far..

    Now must stop to transcribe Church Gardener's poem - about winter!
