Farms & Sunset

We had the nicest day up here on the mountain in a long time.  It was bright, sunny and warm with all the trees beginning to really change colors.  If it were like this all the time, we would never leave the mountain; however, it will soon be barren of leaves and cold.  

We did some work around the cabin and motorhome to get ready for departure in a couple weeks.  Nothing major since I have been grounded by the doctor until he sees me this Friday.  We had planned on Cassie, Jack and Lexa joining us up here for a Sunday dinner.  Gerry had prepared pork chops and wild rice in a casserole dish, along with green beans and a garden salad.  They couldn't make it so we took the meal down to them and enjoyed it at their house.

On the way down we got some nice shots of a farm house near Waynesboro, PA that we drive by all the time.  It is always very neat and everything trimmed up really nice.  Like most farms up here it is a dairy farm and we see the cows along side of the road all the time.

We were just in time to see a beautiful sunset here in Maryland.  We usually are at the cabin around sunset and the tall trees block out sunset so much that it isn't all that great.  This time we were in farmland and there was a ridge between us and the sun.  We must have 1,000 sunset photos and never get tired of them.  If you need a good sunset photo, let us know. 

We had dinner and then hung around to watch "The Amazing Race" plus a little football.  I guess Ron C is happy that his beloved Packers won their game.  It was a good day for the Redskins also since the Eagles & Giants both lost, while the Redskins didn't play.  Since they are division rivals, each loss for them is good for the Skins.  Next week the Skins will play the Eagles and if they can win, it will just about end the Eagles chances for making the playoffs.  Should be an interesting game.

  2. Sunset pictures are always welcome, and yes, we keep taking them also. Most never get shown to anyone else, but just taking the picture is a small way to honor God's goodness and beauty.

  3. It was a good day for Ron C, he willingly turned the TV to "The Good Wife" and watched it in the middle of the Packer game. Like your "Amazing Race" Sunday night TV is all messed up with late football games. I don't know why they don't allot more time for the game and cut out one of the programs. Oh well.

    Sunset pictures are beautiful, especially CCRV ones. We don't get good ones here either. To much on the horizon.
