Finally Fall

We've had a few frosty nights lately so it is seeming to be a little more "fallish!" 40 degree nights and 60 days would be perfect.  The trees haven't yet gotten the message to put on their colorful coats but our walnut trees have been rapidly undressing the past few breezy days.  They are the first to lose their leaves and the last to get them in the spring. They are, however, quickly dropping their nuts.... I'm expecting their voices to lower quickly :-)  Jett enjoys picking them up and smelling them.  Lacie remarked how fresh and lemony they actually smell..... I had never noticed as I'm pretty sure I never sniffed them before.  All these wonderful things I'm learning from Jett.  I don't believe I ever licked a rock before either but it appears they're quite delicious.......He is definitely....all boy....all 26+#.

There is some flood repair work going on all up and down Rt. 38 and we've been the lucky landing spot for lots of stone and heavy equipment.  Jett is in his glory.  He's a HUGE Big truck fan (and school buses.)  Even Bailee, nearly 11, couldn't stop climbing the piles over the week-end.    Yesterday they unloaded about 15 more truck loads of stone.  Hopefully, there will still be some left  for this week-end's mountain climbing adventure!!!!

Life is good @ EIEIO!
