Goodbye September and it is the Hodgepodge

 

On the hunt for that perfect pumpkin.

 

Hello Friends,

It is Wednesday and it is time for the Hodgepodge. 

Click here to join the fun! 

Joyce asks the questions.

We answer the questions.

 

 1. When you think of autumn what sounds come to mind? 

 

 Rustling sounds of dried corn.

Saturday we spent the day with our youngest son, we got lost a few times, but we did manage to get out of the corn maze. 


 

 The autumn winds and rustling of leaves.

 

 2.  Is a trip to the mountains something you enjoy? What's your favorite mountain? 

 

 We do not have any real big mountains here in Wisconsin.

I have not explored many of the mountains in the USA.

Our favorite mountain here in Wisconsin is Rib Mountain State Park.

The below photo is of our youngest son in February of this year on top of Rib Mountain on his way down on his snowboard.

 

 

3. What's something that once felt like a mountain, but is now just a molehill? 

We needed to tackle a job this past week. Move me into my new potting shed. Oh it felt like a mountain at first. So much stuff to move and sort and clean. 

 


Team Work!!!  We did it!!!

  2. What a sweet day at the apple orchard! I'm glad your weather was beautiful in September. Ours was nice as well. Your potting shed looks great- how organized. I'd say you need to come here and help me with mine but I don't have one :(. Have a great day!
