Closing summer. Getting ready for Fall.

My bucket list for summer is done. 
Travel and health issues dealt with. 
Today I go back to the Y and begin to swimming again
(I suspend during the summer when there are WAY too many people in the pool.)

The grandparenting section of the house will slow for fall
so things cleaned up and covered to keep spiders in their place

Art centers are ready for Nana alone time.

Our new roof should keep us safe from the fall rains

including the hurricanes.

The paving of the driveway is almost done

and the fall woodworking projects are on their way.

A few trips to the beach are in order- 

now that the summer crowds are gone.

Rehobooth is my favorite beach and 

boardwalk. The small restaurants will close

and parking will be free.  

 Lewes ferry to Cape May is always a good fall trip. 

We go to look at property in Idaho soon.

We built this house in Flagstaff in 1991- so you get the idea

that we were never ones for a plain house.

We have two houses to tour.

This crazy house is in the middle of no where  

and they are expecting to make a killing 

but we just want to see it. 

The top part is the house.

It is too large.

This one is in the middle of the woods

ten miles from Yellowstone.

I never want to live in a place that could be burned out again,

and this one is too small.

But we love the idea

 We will talk to a contractor and look at building that is just right.

After that it is time for leaf raking
 and apple sauce making
October is such a pleasant month in Delaware. 
Work at the food pantry and the Y will keep me busy otherwise.

Novemeber will find me in Hawaii.
My sister in law turns...well, older (but younger then me). 
We love to visit  this place- but it will, probably, be my last visit 
for a long, long time.

Fall, my favorite season, will solidify to winter. 

It is supposed to be a cold one.
