So....Here are some cute pix I took of Mrs. Coon and her two coonlets. I saw her walking back and forth across the driveway...trying to take one little coon baby to a new location...but when she'd go back for the other, the first one would be right behind her!!! I walked down to see them and they were all the way up at the top of an Oak Tree...just watching me real close...I took a few pix and got the heck outta there...didn't want to disturb them too much. It was a real fall day here in Southern Oregon. A little rain, and a little sun...they opened up burning again, so the burn pile got lit on fire!!! Wow!!!! thank goodness...the summer found us cleaning lots of things up...like tearing the inside of the barn apart, and also tearing a few pens apart off of the back side of the barn. Old sheep breeding pens, that needed to be turned into larger stalls for the horses. I'm not done yet, but it's getting closer to being done. The inside of the barn needs to be sided with smooth sheets of plywood, so the horses don't get their feet caught in the log framed posts. I also need to get into that garden and get all the water lines pulled out and get it tilled with the tractor before it gets too soggy!!!! We had a beautiful crop of berries and grapes this year, however the tomatoes have been better in previous years. The peppers did wonderful and we enjoyed fresh Salsa during the summer...it's been a beautiful summer, but I'm really looking forward to Winter again. I love being able to experience all 4 seasons in Oregon. It is really a wonderful place to live!
