My favorite time of the year apple festival, football, leaves (today is a sad day happens everyfall


You may remember I had a close encounter a month ago: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027151319

In the last 10 days all our hummingbirds headed south except one. It was a female. I can't help but wonder if it was her. Yesterday was the last we saw of her. We leave the feeders up till freezing weather for those passing through.

When I posted about my encounter notadmblnd suggested planting Rose of Sharon bushes. They have bloomed and have buds. I can't wait for our hummingbirds to return. We plan on putting in asters: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027203744

Our granddaughter got out of school early today. We took her to Nebraska City on a Oktoberfest run. Only 4th grader I know that loves kraut. We got a few items made in an old world way.

We will make the trip again after the leaves get their color.
