Was up that way (sort of) last week to see the fall colors. Spent a week in the Adirondack Mountains.

And you didn't come to visit? OK, I'm on the wrong side of Lake Champlain but you could have maybe visited @RollingAcres

@Bruce, I did wave in your direction! Next time I go on vacation, I am going to have to find out if I will be close to BYH people.

Oh, that was you, I thought it was the wind in the storm!
Please do check, I've met a few BYHers and BYCers, good people every one.

I bet, like everywhere, it is a lot different now.

I went to visit another Katahdin farm yesterday. Oh my gosh, I was very pleasantly surprised. I never know what to expect when visiting other farms, but this was great. Beautiful well-muscled big healthy ewes...that are fed only grass, no grain. I'm so excited to see what potential ewes we will be able to purchase 
On another note....turned the furnace on this morning to make sure its working right since it was off all summer. Was chilly out this morning, only 33 when I woke up. Supposed to be a nice sunny day though, hopefully not windy since I have to go sit on the side of the football field to watch my boys last game. Going to try and finish winterizing the chicken coop today, and all the other stuff we need to get done before it snows and gets really cold.
Hope you all have had a wonderful weekend

Finally got the chicken coop covered with plastic for the winter, hopefully it will keep the layers of eggs less drafty the things I do for those feathered raptors and they lay maybe 2 eggs a day

Of course, under each slant on the roof is a long gap that lets air flow through the top. I just wrapped it so they were not getting blasted with cold air where they roosted. Since they like to roost in the run
