I know it's been a year since I posted, but the urge has hit me again, so I thought I'd try to start this blog thing back up again. I've subscribed to a blogging lab and I've been getting these emails, well, that are pretty motivating. I've been even more motivated to work outside lately. I guess it's the weather; it's finally turned cooler here in St. Louis and this is my most favorite time of year. Fall. I've worked in the yard every day after work this week. Tending the chickens. And prepping the garden for spring.
These are four of my girls. I love to sit and listen to them chatter as they forage.
The geese have been flying in too. There have been geese on the lake almost every night this week when I come home. They make a racket when they take off, but it's still quite a site to see them flying above the water.
While working in the yard, I noticed all of the tiny crickets and frogs that are hopping around right now. Not to mention the swarms of gnats and those bothersome mosquitoes! I also found a large horned toad. Well, at least it looked like a horned toad. I took a picture with my phone - I'll have to post that next time.
Working so much in the yard has been tiring, but I actually feel better overall after being outside and enjoying the outdoors. Do you know what I mean? It doesn't seem so much like work or exercise.
I know it isn't OFFICIALLY Fall yet, but it feels like and I'm loving it. I hope you are enjoying it too!
