Hired Hand

While Michael walked Emmi this morning I made a flying trip into town to deliver some fabric samples to Barb and to pick up a quilt from Jane for quilting. 

Homemade spaghetti for lunch then it was off to the West Boulder.

Michael needed a hand today with some grass seeding on the road project he has worked on this summer and fall.  He was going to operate the excavator while I ran the grass seeder—thus I was the hired hand today, forgot to ask him what he pays!!!

It was simply a beautiful day to be outside! 

IMG_0987 I climbed the hill using my little hand held grass spreader and Michael puttered along moving rocks, grading, etc.  Once we got to the top, I headed back down with Emmi spreading more grass seed as I went.  When I ran out of seed, Emmi and I sat down on a rock to wait for Michael and the bag of grass seed.

While sitting I heard this strange noise, thought it was a squirrel but the sound kept getting closer and closer.  Out of the corner of my eye I saw movement--IMG_0988 There were four turkeys within 20 feet of me!

The land on which we were working sits right on the West Boulder River.  See what a nice day it was to be outside!!IMG_1001

  3. Better 4 turkeys than a bear! One of those has been busy with our compost bin. Beautiful pictures on a beautiful day. The pay is being healthy, happy and enjoying the beauty and blessings of the creator.

  5. I'm jealous about your fall colors. Here, at the coast it is tood warm and most leaves turn from green straight into brown.
