October...looks like December

 Woke up to this on Oct. 3rd...

Don't think we will be using our swimming pool

anytime soon! :-)

"Frosty" joined us this morning, too. 

He is happier than we are with the snow.

These ladies came for a lunch of crab apples.

One day later...poor "Frosty" :-(
Must've been a heck of a diet.

 I guess we had our own "Hooter."  He had been
hanging around the yard and seemed to wait
for someone to come out of the house.

 I think he was sick.  Bob said something
killed the owl last night (Monday, Oct. 7th).

Jimmy's hired man Carl came on Saturday,
and Bob took him to a UND hockey game. 
Ed joined us for breakfast after church on Sunday.
They had fun reminiscing about their trip to South Africa.

I was driving a truck out to a field and had
to stop at the end of our driveway to take this photo.

The first sign of winter? Guess which vehicle
is "undercover".

Well, we left home Friday morning, the 11th, and 
drove through heavy snow and a blizzard to get
to Grand Forks for the UND hockey games.  
The highway department closed all of the
highways in and out of Grand Forks after
we got there!

  Had a great weekend and
the team won both of their games.  This is the
traditional "salute" after a "sweep."

Back home on Sunday.  This poor robin forgot to head south.
