Come walk with me

I think that Fall (well Oklahomas version) is finally here, I do so love this time of year and it is my favorite...if it were fall all year long, I would be happy about it.
Seems like so much that people do can be gotten past and forgotten this time of year...Fall is romantic and whimsical, all the daydreams I had as a child were always related to fall somehow, it just seems like such a special time of year, and if I don't say so myself, I do some of my best photography this time of year...I feel called to do it more now than any other season, probably because Mother earth has so much to share with us right now.
If your interested you can see some of my work at www.RedBubble.com just type in Gentlerain in the search window :) I tried to put a slide show up, but I cannot get it to work :(...I would be greatly apprecitive if someone could tell me how to do that.

We should be starting on getting our goat pens up on the side of the hill soon...seems I am putting it off for right now, probably because I know it is going to be miserable and cold work before I am done getting that fence put up...but better to do it now that to wait until it get's too cool even during the day to get it done...without having to come in and warm up...since only the kids have good winter coats.

Danny (my beloved) worked on my clothes line again today...LOL that poor ol thing is about southern engineered to death...I think we will just have to make due for a bit longer, but should be able to get some good supplies before the winter and get it up good...lol right now the poor ol thing is pitiful...it's a long lead rope tied to a big ol oak limb and the doorway to the chicken yard, with an oak limb down in 2 cinder blocks in the middle keeping it from hanging too low...LOL it really is about as make due as they come...but it works somewhat :)

Sadly we lost one of our best laying hens...not really sure what happened to her other than she became a snack to a coyote or something along those lines..We let them out during the day, but 2 of my girls made a habit of getting out of their yard and going up into the woods(my bad, I didn't wanna clip their wings)...well Penny came back, but Henny never did...we hunted until dark and then the next day me and Adam went to hunt again, and we never did find her or any remains...so we like to think she is up eating tons of nice juicy bugs and greens up on the hillside somewhere :)

well I guess I have completely bored you to death by now if anyone actually does read this mess...but I need to go get ready, tonight is the school halloween (fall) carnival...Adam is so excited and we really do enjoy going...lol it's like the town social or something
