an old barn that is on the edge of Riceton.......

one view of their house.......

a view of their house and shed from across the street........

there is very little for services in Riceton and the children there are bused to Milestone....this sign shows the years the school was in operation.....

Lyle coming out of the big boy toy store...I let him go in alone and he came out with only 1 bag..kinda surprised me.....maybe next trip to Regina he'll be allowed in alon again...lol

this is the day I go see my neurologist...after my visit I am quite pleased...seems we have low white count and low oxygen levels under control for now anyway...after my appointment we went out to Riceton and spent the balance of the afternoon with my brother and sister in law...they just recently purchased a house and are doing a complete reno on it...very exciting for them but I am glad it's them and not me..am anxious to see the finished job......the weather was gorgeous and the farmers were busy as bees..very exciting time for them....had a very GOOD day got GOOD checkup...but oh boy am I exhausted...hoping for a GOOD sleep.....:)

this is my lawn decoration although the birds and squirrel think its a smorg....since Thanksgiving is near I guess that's ok.......

this is my friend's corn field..they grow it and in a while they will turn their cattle in and let them clean it off before it gets cold......

here we are at the end of another month..putting us two thirds of the way through this year..time just seems to fly....today has been another GOOD day..weather wise it was gorgeous again..I spent some time today outside puttering and this afternoon I went to my friend's farm and picked 12 corn stalks from their field...I am going to use them for my outdoor Thanksgiving decoration...I also spent part of the day sewing..finished up another jumper..done some laundry and tidy up...the Crew and I were out for a run (they run I drive) today has been a very GOOD day and tho' I am tired I feel quite GOOD...seen an eagle today but was unable to get a photo as I was slightly unprepared......:)

as one will notice I did some catching up today...caught up my blog...caught up on some housework and laundry (had to happen sooner or later)..I also caught up on some paper work and those cranberries I picked Friday are now tucked away in pint jars in the form of Cranberry ketchup...all 14 pints..although most of my day was spent catching up I did spend a GOOD part of the day outside...when the day is sunny my pc gets neglected so I reacquainted myself with it today all 27 e-mails.......am tired and kinda sore today but had a GOOD day.....:)
