No More Grace

On Monday, we woke up to a pile of white chicken feathers in the field.  We just found out today that there has been a coyote wandering around and finally our neighbor shot it because it was trying to kill his chickens too.  My Mom thought that it was a bear, but it turns out that it was a hungry coyote. We then noticed that it was Grace (our chicken made out of steel, the one that would not die) who got eaten. Now we only have her kids, Daisy and Duke. My Mom said that she hopes that her kids have her strong genes! =)

I took some pictures of Devil's Slide and the bend in the river while the fall colors are still on the trees. It was so pretty!

This morning, there was a bunch of frost on the ground outside. It was a beautiful morning! There was not a cloud in the sky.

Today, Dan and Becky came over to load their portion of the wood into their horse trailer. Dan also helped us with the root cellar. They made two trips to their house today and when we get the wood splitter from Uncle Paul, we are going to have a big wood splitting party! :)

Loading up the wood in their trailer.

Dan and Becky's half!

Unloading it at Dan and Becky's house.

I took some fall pictures of the pretty leaves on the trees in front of their house.
 

The boys played with their "weapons".

Dad and the boys have been working a lot on the root cellar and half of the wall is already done!!
