Our Own Apple Pies

Not our own yet I guess! We picked apples at the farm and had to make a few pies with them. They were perfect if I do say so myself. I do not know the kind of apple but wow! They cook up beautifully. They didn't last very long but they were never intended too, so it was perfect!

WoooHooo!

What Else Can I Say?? We close OCt 22, 2008. Amazing! Thank God!

Pond Visitor

We were farm stalking again and we spotted this beaver visiting at the farm. He was huge!

Fall Signs in Potter County

We took a walk in the woods and tested out Larry's tree stand for archery season. The woods are all colored with yellows, reds, and oranges. It was truly beautiful. Larry's trail camera had had a run in with a bear and the picture above were the last two before the camera came down! Yes that one is a close up of bear fur!

Hunter's Birthday and Cousin's Visit

Karen and Jason came up for a weekend to go to a firehall benefit called the 300 club. It was also Hunter's birthday weekend so we had cake and ice cream with the cousins on Sunday. The boys both got Nintendo DS systems and all regular conversation stopped for the weekend between the boys. The system 's can talk to each other and send messages like text messages on a phone. So these two were talking to each other on the DS systems while standing right next to each other. Tooo Funny!

Storm Damage

We had those massive wind storms come through after Hurricane Ike. This is two separate trees. One was collapsed by the other as it came through. The only damage a was a small scratch on the van. Amazing!

Co-op Starts

The co-op year has started and it looks like it will be a great one. The upper class which I teach is doing a forensic science class every week. This is the class where we got to use the program to draw faces that the police and FBI actually use. We are teamed up withe great science program giving us access to spectacular equipment that the schools rarely have access to use.
