A few yardsales for Pat and I yesterday, but no great bargains...Back home I worked outside deadheading and looked at spots that need to be filled in as fall approaches...Never as much fun putting everything to bed as it was in the spring when everything is just sprouting through the earth...A good soaking rain afternoon and into the night really helped to freshen things up as we look ahead to the Indian Summer that Wallowa County is famous for...The "turning" of the trees, as the maples go through many shades of red and the tamarack turn from green to gold...It was posted on FB yesterday that the storm left its first snow (maybe hail) on Ruby Peak.
Brian delivered 20# of pickling cukes from Walla Walla and I quickly washed and put them to soak overnight in ice water...They are patiently waiting this morning ready to go into jars and onto the cellar shelves...When afternoon turned cool yesterday I got the baking itch and made a small batch of chocolate chip cookies, not only to warm the house but our tummies as well...Becky stopped by for a short visit as she ends another workweek and looks forward to a weeks training in El Paso Texas...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
