Well, this was a week of appts. Last week someone came out and cleaned all the gutters, raked all the debris, and hauled the leaves away. He did a really nice job, and gives 110% of himself when he works, and you don't see that anymore. He even rinsed my car off after from all the dust in the air. Then, I was driving on the road, and my car started vibrating. I thought it might be a flat tire, so I got out to check. No flat tire, and I managed to drive it over to the auto shop, and right away, M. took care of it. He's the best, and I appreciate having his shop up here in the mountains. It needed a new coil, and an hour and $128.00 later, I was on my way.

You know, I crave these sometimes.
It's apple picking time, and Jess and family found the perfect apples at the farm. She said it was a lovely time, and so peaceful.
My brother-in-law from Seattle called, and we had a nice chat. It's so thoughtful that he checks up on me from time to time. He just got back from a hunting trip, and saw about 30 bucks and some wolves. He said he might be up this way in October, and if so, he'll stop by.
I was talking with my neighbor, Lisa, and she told me that there was a mountain lion spotted just about a block away in the neighborhood. She said she's staying put and isn't going out at night for awhile.
Mountain Lions can grow up to 7 feet long, from their nose to their tail. They have outstanding vision, even in the dark. They eat meat, and where there are deer, there likely are mountain lions. A mountain lion may eat one deer a week.
With all the appts. lately, I felt nature calling me and telling me to visit. So, come along, but first I have to get a cup of coffee for the road in my favorite Fall cup.

The tree branches blowing in the wind looked spooky as they made a shadow through my blinds. 😲
I hope you are having good October days.
