Little Honeycrip Apples


Last year our little apple trees produced zero apples. But this year we have apples, but they are really small, probably because we did not feel the need to prune. I am posting them next to a wall socket so you can see how small they are. I went to the grocery store to try and figure out what kind of apples they were. They look a lot like the Honeycrip apples, only smaller. They are pretty sweet! I am looking forward to Mom and Ed's opinion.

Fluttering Aspens



Here are some picture of the high country. And a picture of the campsite.

Happy Camper


Paul decided that he needed a camper closer than the travel trailer, but he didn't want to go and get the travel trailer, because he wasn't sure the truck could carry it over the mountain passes. So, He got another pop-up.

Paul took to Sedalia last week and then he talked me into going camping over the weekend. We went to a natl forest about three miles north of Faser. Did you know that Fraser has a motel that is actually call 'Worst Western Motel?'



It was really bad, it was like camping on the wrond side of the moon, not because of the recent forest fires, but because of the beetle damage. I think the only one they left open was one that had not made quota over the summer. We were going stay two nights, but because it as so barren we left early Saturday morning.


Only the Shadow Knows

We had a fairly good sunset one day a couple days ago, and I took some picture, but this is a shot of me either being silly or kind of creative. You be the judge. It's a fine line.

Man Purse


We went to the flea market a couple of weeks ago because Paul wanted a wallet and he was unable to fine one that he liked. At the flea market he found three.


Then we needed twin sheets for the camper. I found a set at Good homes for seven dollars, so I thought I was getting a pretty good deal, until I went across the street and Kolhs has twin sheet for $3.40 plus Terrie had a coupon for 30% off. So, I probably got them for arond $2.50 each. Too bad I forgot she had the coupon because there was a wii game I had been eyeing...Anyway at that price I got two sets instead of one. And the final picture is of some black eyed Susans that are in front of my work building.

True Heart


My pallie,Debbie, got a new cat that she named True Heart.

Farmer Siska


I know it has been a while since my last post. I can't say that I have much to say, but I have been taking pictures. It is nice to have a camera that is small enough to put in my very small purse. So that when ever I have something that I might want to remember I can take a picture and worry about if I really want to remrmber later, and by remember I mean post. I will start with the tomatoes. As you might have heard we had problems growing them this year. I am not sure what we did wrong and I am not sure I want to try again next year.

But I know I will forgot the disappointment by spring unless I have a reminder. The first shot is what they looked like in the garden, the second is what they looked like when we turned them over.

The roma tomatoes look fine, except they are a tad small. I am not sure we will get many it is already the end of September and the romas are just turning red now.
