Karl and his family went for a hike last weekend to enjoy the beautiful fall foliage in NH. His son Oscar, having just turned 8, still has much more energy than his parents. We couldn't tell if he was coming or going at times. Turns out at the end, he just wanted to go up.
Connie and her husband Ken have been spending part of October on their Farm in Upstate New York. When moving their herd of cows from one pasture to the next, they came across a Rogue Volunteer Pumpkin growing all on it's own on the edge of the pasture. What a great fall scene!
