It’s been really nice having David, Linda and Willow  here ..  especially during this time of year.   

Its been  nice having a dog in the house again.  We miss our girls so much.. but were not ready yet for more dogs.. we’re traveling so much to see the boys. 

Aroudn10 we all drove down to Yates orchard in Monkton. Its on the way home for Linda and David.. and today is the last day that Yates is open. We had to have one more dreamy .. a hot cider donut covered with maple softserve. Yume

Today Yates  had  cans of a softdrink made here in VT. Its Carrot Silk Chilli..   It tastes like its name.. and I’m not so sure thats a good thing 🙂 

We said goodbye to david, linda and willow… they drove south.. and we headed to north ferrisurgh to try out a enw trail.   I dont remember the name of the trail.. but it starts with a long boardwalk over a amarsh.. THen does a really beautiful loop around a tall hill. on ann otherwise flat plane THere are soem great views there.. and theres a cool rock formation called the Oven.

THen we headed back hoe. I had a ton of work to do on a BETA project. 
We noticed when we got home that last nights hard frost fina;;y got the better of the giant elephant plants..   It was their   time.

Nite all, nite sam
