Garden is starting to come in finally!

End of the smell

Rose has the house de-skunked including the back door that Hanna rubbed her face last weekend when she got a face-full of skunk, ugh. Hannah after 2 baths can still be smelled.

Friday we missed the storm...Yay! We didn't get a lot of rain, mostly drizzled here, no high winds either, I'm OK with that.

Rose saw the Bobcat Friday afternoon, her and Zeb saw it trotting through the field out behind the house. Not our pic...

Saturday we drove by the pond and Rosie noticed it went down a couple of feet! Not good going into fall. We drove down to New Boston center the Piscataqua river is all but a trickle in some spots... closer to downtown there was more water. Glen Lake in Goffstown looked very low too, sandbars, rock ledges and trees grounded were visible.

We went down to Pepperell Saturday to see Rose's brother Jimmy, he's doing great after his stroke, he lost the use of his left arm, and vision in his left eye after his stroke. Both his arm and vision are back now, everything the stroke took away came back, Amazing!

Zeb with his Band-Aid...

Zeb got in to something on Tuesday morning and had a nice cut on his nose. Rose put a band-aid with Bacitracin on it. I can't believe he wore the band-aid all day.

We sat out at the fire pit the other night it was nice.

Hannah sitting on the hill waiting for a bunny to show up, she sits here almost every night waiting, she can't get to him though due to her radio collar. I think the bunny knows the dogs can't get to him and is just playing with her.

Gardens are coming in, let the fall games begin... Yum, Black Krim, and Brandy-wine, tomatoes. Mater sandwiches for lunch. A single pepper, off of 6 plants are a little disappointing, more broccoli, and a couple cups of big blackberries. We left the Butternut squash and Acorn for now. Rose saw a cantaloupe coming along too.

Blackbirds are starting to flock up, they are cleaning up out in the deer yard.

THIS POLITICAL MESS WE'RE IN...

Biden... "Trump and the extreme MAGA Republicans have made their choice -- to go backwards full of anger, violence, hate and division, while Democrats have chosen to be a nation of unity and hope." LOL, WOW! What a loser... Blame republicans for what the Dem's are doing right in front of our eyes. We've never had a more divisive president! Yeah he's a uniter all right...

Nancy Pelosi confirmed last summer that ‘the president can’t do it — so that’s not even a discussion.’ She said, ‘Not everybody realizes that, but the president can only postpone, delay but not forgive.’ Biden’s response? A middle finger.” —Charles C.W. Cooke

$10,000 school loan paycheck, According to Newsweek, Laffer estimated that “if everyone who qualified received the $10,000, it would cost $440 billion in a $22 trillion economy, or roughly 2 percent.” He said that 2 percent constitutes a “big number” in government spending. Laffer also explained that forgiving student loan debt could lead to less people working in an “already-scarce labor market.”

“What you’re doing is getting people out of the labor force not producing goods which will push prices up by itself… and expanding the quantity of money resources available will push prices up,” Laffer said. “More money and less goods—both of those combine to give higher inflation.”
