Weekly Tour



I remembered to take my camera with me yesterday on our weekly tour of the land. It was a beautiful day, and although the recent frosts had put an end to the goldenrod field, I took pictures of some of the fields where the winter wheat was planted. Only a few are planted, most of the fields are now in weeds of various kinds.









I liked the reflections in this little pond.

Laddie never tires of driving these roads. Yesterday, after completing the tour of Raft Bayou land, he wanted to go on to the land down at Bisteneau. He was tired when we got there, and I was in the car, so we didn't visit all of the pastures or follow the fence lines there. Whew! As it was, I didn't get home until 6:30.

  6. Pretty pictures Jen. I love the Reflections photo espescially.

    My dad is 86 & his favorite thing to do is drive the backroads in Michigan. His driving is getting a little scarey though. He fiddels with the radio & drifts into oncoming traffic...at least on the backroads the traffic is light!

  7. sometimes when I am out driving some property line or another, I picture you and Laddie doing the same thing. It is a wonderful way to spend time imo.

  8. Beautiful autumn. Now that I'm up, I'm sitting out on the deck in the sun and smelling all the autumnal smells. Yum.

  10. I know the land must shake loose stories from him also and I always imagine these road trips being filled with tales, short and tall ones.

  13. Blogger has been doing a lot of weird things. I've been trying to get to a blog for days but I get redirected to some weird web page. I tried googling and still can't get there. Jen, have you been to Toad Haven Annex lately?

  14. Wow! I bet I don't forget my camera next time. Thanks for all of the nice remarks, and I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures!

    Deborah, not only have I not visited Toad Haven Annex lately, but I haven't visited YOU lately! I'll be by shortly.
