Signs of Winter

It's coming. We usually see snow around the 10th of October, it doesn't stick yet... But the signs are there that it's coming...

*It's been below freezing most of this week and the frost has coated the ground white.

*The birds are back in full force at the bird feeder.

*The moose are gone. Don't worry they'll come back when the snow gets too deep.

*We went to 3 lakes today to feed ducks and couldn't find any. So we went to a creek and fed some aged red salmon. They liked the bread and the kids thought it was very cool that the fish were eating their bread.

*We've got all the summer stuff closed up, the camper packed up and the winter gear out and waiting.

*There are several days this week they are calling for chance of snow.

I think we are going to wake up to a surprise of white very soon.

Alexism

The kids have been very lucky lately finding coins on the ground every where we go. The other day we were in the grocery store and Alex asked what the box at the counter with money was for. We read the tag and it was a cancer fundraiser, he reached in his pocket and pulled out his 11 cents that he had found at school this day and put it in the box. Then he proceeded to find another quarter and ran back to the front of the store and put it in the box too...
