Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Showers and a little wet outside this morning even though the crystal ball was saying dry and scattered clouds. More rain tonight and then two days of drying out before more rain on Saturday...I think they need to take some Windex to their crystal ball!


Been on phone with nurse at the MIL's care home. Apparently she fell out of her wheel chair last night at dinner and got a cut over her eye. He said it was nothing to get excited about. Told him we would be in town today for a visit. They had been under a self imposed quarantine last week trying to get a nasty flu bug / virus under control.

Good evening Ford Fans'. The wind is kicking up and trying to clear some more leaves out.

We still have leaves on trees and neighbors who don't clean theirs up.

I have some at the back of me that are always late at falling, I should try and get out there and rake them before they are covered by white crap but I'm pretty involved in this pickup build right now...lol

I don't bag them.......just mulch them. The lawn mower does a nice job of chopping them up.

I mulched mine with my riding mower. I don't have that many, though.
