Well, leaves are coloring,temperature is dropping and rifles can be heard in the woods. Barkley is good about wearing his hunting togs. After all he is a hunting dog. It is hard not to let him run and play. The beach will be off limits for 10 days as it is being sprayed with poison for phragmites. Vicious weeds that grow expediently when you aren't looking. They will in side of two years prevent you from using the beach. They must go.
All is well. Kids are back in school. Jim is coming home for a 10 day leave and Jessie is floating around on the Nimitz in the middle of the ocean. Finishing up summer taxes and getting ready for winter.
