In for a couple of nice days, then some medium-nice days, then back to the deep freeze. We never did get the 3" of snow predicted, which will help shorten Winter a bit. Still plugging away on my list of 'general duties' but it's time for the cured squashes to come in and go down to the basement. I'd better get working on my pie pumpkins. I'm going to give a few to the mule and steer as a special treat.
The squash treat reminds me of the year that Beau was grazing a steer on the front lawn so he didin't have to mow it after a 14 hour workday. This was before *I* showed up and returned this place to SOME semblance of order! ;) He fed the steer a few raw Spaghetti Squash and the next Spring there were Spaghetti Squashes growing in patches all over the house yard! *Rolleyes* Boys!
