Day 286 - 17th October 2017 - Leaves, Ferns and a Chickadee

Well it never did rain Monday and was quite mild, feels a little cooler this morning. The private road has a carpet of pine needles and leaves now. In some spots you can hardly see the ground. Had  a good day at work - nice to put on the regular clothes again instead of the costume. Got our inventory done, clean up and things put away. Today we shift to another museum and work on exhibit tear down. Always fun to have different things to do. It was so nice getting home earlier- took Larry out for a walk, leftover turkey and trimmings for supper, built a fire in the furnace and threw together a turkey soup for the next few nights. He also decided to try out the cane last night which was extremely successful and gives him a little more mobility freedom.

Some trees stand bare now.

 The ferns and grasses are lovely hues of yellows and gold.

And there is usually a Chickadee somewhere nearby.




Enjoy your day!
