Dad's Goosey Gander



Nothing like having good company on a pleasant evening walk...Dad's new found friend followed him all over the site as he locked up. He just waddled along behind at his own pace but made it all the way to our house and onto the porch.

September Adventures

September is moving along quite quickly and the weather seems to be feeling like fall...leaves are falling and the pumpkin in Elizabeth Whitney's garden is growing. We have had some nice walks in the parks here with the geese and deer joining us. We have been seeing the deer almost every walk this last little while. Our party time and P-day time have also been entertaining. I hope you like our great hats from our "Hats Off to Labor Day" party....Dad's doesn't look to unusual......but don't you just love this old hat...especially the netting....I'm saving it for future use...
....These are the winners...Sister Taylor bought her hat and mine at an antique shop. Elder Giles made his out of a place mat and even made his wife's...How about Sister Pyrah's lampshade!!!!

Dean and Elder Taylor were so fascinated with when we explored some of the area's south of here. This is a big rock quarry...We really had a good time exploring the Amish country in Holmes County. We visited an Amish Farm and rode in the carriages and toured the old home. There is a real horse in front of the reins...but the Amish driver doesnt' like to have his picture taken. How about the different outfits that were on display...We finished the day by visiting the Football Hall of Fame.
So much for some fun adventures...but there are still P-Days to come!
