Fall In The Mountains

What a busy month October has been. Between remodeling our house,showing property and a constant stream of visitors, we have really been running. Our friends from Michigan, Bob and Ali, arrived Sat. afternoon and we began a fun weekend of catching up, eating, hiking, bike riding the Virginia Creeper Trail and more eating! Lots of fun but I am exhausted and ready to get back to normal. The air is turning cool and the leaves are starting to change. It has been such a wonderful summer even though I know we need the rain. Just a few more weeks and we will be packing it up to head south. I'm already feeling sad and not quite as anxious to leave. I do look forward to seeing two of my children that live there so that thought keeps me moving. For now I will relish every moment and bloom where I'm planted. Putting the finishing touches on the house so we can get it on the market. Tomorrow is painting day in the downstairs apt. Will include some recent pics of our weekend. It was Bob's birthday and Monday night we had a little dinner party for him. We crammed as much as we could in those few days and it was FUN.
