Love this picture of a bird cooling off in the water filled petals !

Good morning
It is very windy out, even blew the kitchen door open.
I didnt do much yesterday…washed some clothes, gave myself a manicure.
It was just a regular day.
I did buy some frozen cookie dough so i made cookies, so easy and so good too….lol
Hi Ardy
Oh dear with it being windy enough to blow open your kitchen door 😮
Which frozen cookie dough did you use?
The deadbolt wasnt locked but, still the wind opened it. I was sleeping on the couch while watching my soap opera.
I just bought the Walmart pre cut brand. I think they are delicious. I only made half of them
The cookies
They look yummy 🍪😋
Send some over here Ardy I could just do with a sugrt rush, lol !
Yummy!😘
Hi Ardy,
Kind of scary to be sitting there and having the door burst open, YIKES!
Cookies sound good. 😘
Too good!
I wish I could buy that I would love to bake some cookies but our shops don’t stock the goodies that you have over there sadly or I’d be baking all day ! 🍪
All you do is break them off and bake…so easy and good.
Good morning, Sunny and warm, today is going up to 76. It won’t be this warm again I don’t think until next year! We worked at the camp until late afternoon yesterday. I packed up some more stuff to bring here and washed the refrigerator inside and out thoroughly. I wiped down all the cupboards ( which were really pretty clean ) and helped Denny draining the water from the pipes. He lifted the cement top off the well and pulled up the hose stuff ( very hard ) and then I stood by the sinks and shower turning on… Read more »
Hi Jenn.
Gorgeous fall picture.
Is your camp well filling up yet?.
We peered into the well and there was some water at the bottom so we think it filled up a bit after it went dry. There was very little though and Denny said the pipe that he pulled up for the winter does not extend to the very bottom, which is how it is supposed to be I guess. It will take the Fall and Winter for it to fill up again but we had a great summer with plenty of water so very thankful.
You certainly have had a great time at camp😀
Hi Jenn
It might not be exciting but interesting and needed to be done. It did sound like work. It’s nice Denny can do it and save some $$.
Beautiful Fall picture of the trees.
Thanks Ardy, it is necessary work and I am thankful Denny does plumbing and electric. A huge savings.
Hi Jenn
Gorgeous pic of the colors 🧡❤️💚
Wow!! I didn’t realize y’all put antifreeze in the pipes of your camp for the winter.
You have to do that to keep the ‘traps’ in the pipes from collecting any residual water and bursting. Then in Spring we just run the faucets until the pink disappears. It is the standard way to keep safe in winters. If you have ever had pipes burst it is pretty bad. I have a few family members who have had lots of damage and expense of water pipes bursting.

I understand
Hi Jenn, I could dream all day of living there so beautiful ! 🤗
Something about foliage leaves reflecting on the water is almost magical.🧡💛💚
Maine, a beautiful state all the time, just really spectacular with the autumn colors showing 💗
Good morning.
Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
A brilliant red and orange sky this morning, but no rain attached to this sky i’m afraid.
55F at 7-30 will get to 68F later with a very light southerly wind so quite a pleasant day to come.
The Green had a trim yesterday but it is looking very tired, need a big dose of rain now.
Already sweeping some Wisteria leaves up, one of my favourite tasks.😏.
Still a ton of leaves left to fall yet.
Time for a coffee fix now with some bread sticks.
See you all soon.😀😘
Good morning Ice,
I love the picture, it sure is a lot of work raking up those leaves. Then more keep falling for awhile longer.💛🧡
It is hard to believe you are still not getting rain. Seems you used to have lots of rainy days.🤨
Hi Jenn.
Just looking at the Wisteria now and there is still an awful lot of leaves still to fall.
It has been months and months now without seeing some real heavy rainfall.
We have had some showers on and off and they have just filled the water butts up,
I used to post last year quite often about the local river in flood but now there is barely a trickle and getting overgrown with weeds,🙄😘.
I remember you writing about the floods from so much rain. Feast or famine as the saying goes.
Go easy with the raking, a little at a time is best, right?
So right Jenn I am soon out of puff these days.😀
Good morning Ice
What A cute picture!!! Dont work too hard sweeping up the leaves.🍁🍂🍃
Hi Andy.
I have to pace myself these days am soon out of puff.😀😘
I cant do what i used to all at once either.
Hi Ice
Very cute GIF 🎃🍁
Even though you need rain, I’m glad you have a pleasant weather day to enjoy 😊 😘
Hi Kathy.
It is very pleasant at the moment but will we have to pay a penalty wonder.😀😘
Jenn, love your new stove; so easy to keep clean; knobs up top are the best! 😘 Kathy/Craig — Happy Gotcha Day to Chai and Matcha. 💘 Begonias are lookin’ good! Craig could have a side gig of saving/repairing greenery 🌿😘 Ardyth, sorry the food wasn’t very good 😟 The rum/coke looked pretty decent; nice your server had a sense of humor 🍹 Glad the company more than made up for it! 💗 Beryl, good news re: Mark coming next week; love your greeting 💖 Ice, go glad your weather is getting to be more normal; a jumper/cardigan is always… Read more »
Our server was a young, fun girl!
Thanks Pam, I love it too! 😀
Thank you Pam 💗😺
Happy October 🎃 It’s still raining, 36 hours; thankfully, it’s the soft stuff; if it was pouring, we’d all be building arks!🚢 It should start drying up … sometime. 😄 Busy month, lots of fun little ‘holidays/celebrations’. My favorite pumpkin spice treat is ice cream. When living in AZ, I visited a farm to get some pie-pumpkins. They made their own pumpkin ice cream; it was absolutely delicious 😋 i brought some home and was very sad when it was gone; had to make the next batch myself. 😉 Store bought is NOT the same product 😔 Stay warm and… Read more »
