Farm Fun

Dan and I went to visit Aunt Kap and Uncle Jon since Uncle Tom came in town and my first cousin Jake and his girlfriend are temporarily crashing there. We had a nice time and stuffed ourselves on good food.

I took a few pictures of the animals and the farm.
Here is one of their horses who took a brief break from grazing to pose.


And here is Lily, one of their dogs, looking quite pleased with herself.


Here is Rufus, the other dog, playing in the leaves.


Even though it is starting to get cold, there were still a few flowers blooming.


But as you can see, the trees are starting to change.


We spent the night Friday and the next day we went on a short hike to a beautiful pond.
Here is Dan while we were out walking.


And here is one of the lovely spots I stopped to snap a photo.


There are some houses nearby - you can see a balcony in the background.


And another. I love the bright colors of the changing trees.


I really am fascinated with the whole leaves changing thing.


Water flowing over the dam area.


And of course an outing with the uncles would not be complete without some mischief. They discovered a tree chewed up by beavers and decided to see if they could push it over. They couldn't, but it was entertaining nonetheless.


After the hike we headed back into town so we could watch the game. Despite discovering a deer tick on my stomach last night and the Tigers losing disastrously, we had a nice time this weekend. Rosemary came in town for the game and tomorrow we're meeting another friend for dinner. I don't know how I'm going to make myself focus in class Tuesday. Three-day weekends sure are nice though.
