Sam asked his girlfriend to Homecoming.  In response she filled a blue jack-o-lantern bucket with wrapped fortune cookies.  Her answer was hidden in one of the cookies.  I thought it was a very clever idea!

She wrote the note freehand!

This came in the mail last week.  It only took  me 20 years to finish!  I will hang it on our office wall. Then later, when I’m dead, it will make for excellent obituary fodder!

In the process of making Pumpkin Cake Doughnut French Toast.  The sky is grey and people are going to stop mowing their grass very soon. It is definitely pumpkin time!It was another sparse photo week.  For some reason I thought I had more, but when I went through my collection from last week there just wasn’t much there.

Our antelope hunt starts tomorrow.  I don’t know how to feel about it.  I’m not scared, or sad, or nervous, or excited.  I am really looking forward to spending the entire day with Ben (without computers or work).  It will be just Ben, me, hot black coffee in paper gas-station cups, and the wide, grey, Idaho sky threatening early snowfall.
