We have been gone - again. This time we became "leaf peepers." We took trains to the Northeast. We left here, went to New Orleans (for the night for our connection). Then it was Wilmington, Delaware, Burlington, Vermont, Quebec, back to Springfield, Massachusetts then home.
This was a `12 day trip. I really have to say that while our color is much later, our trees are really just as pretty in the fall. I was prepared for temperatures in the 30's, but our last day - in Springfield - the low that morning was 19!!! On the trip from Burlington to Springfield we saw LOTS of snow in Vermont. They were even clearing roads.
Both animals are freaky from their stay - their "camp" experience. Shadow was wild while there, and he hasn't left my side unless I have left the house. Clyde is his usual exhausted dog, but he is like this even when we go to the ranch. Any change in the routine just wears him out. He finally ate this afternoon.
I have a mountain of laundry to do. I got better with my packing this time. The only extra things I brought home were one blouse and night clothes and underwear. I won't go into reasons for those (other than the blouse) being extra. If you are over 60, you may understand. Think I will be talking to my doctor about a little bladder lift soon.
But all is well. G did have us scheduled to leave for the ranch tomorrow. Gasp. At least he put it off until Monday. I keep hoping there will still be flooding in the Hill Country (not to wish anyone any problems, but ...). But he also said that if we don't go on Monday, then we won't be home before Halloween. I don't like leaving this house on Halloween. Nothing has ever happened, but I don't want it to.
So that it where I am. I haven't downloaded pictures yet. I did buy a new edition of Photoshop. I don't have any photo editing on my computers any more. Don't know where it went, but I have one now.
I will check in later!
