Waving away to all of you..we arrived safely..looks a bit different, last time we were here we were in 5' of snow and it was Christmas...Betty was in her workshop as she was helping santa get ready for Christmas...

It's still cold here and not much has changed, it may not be Christmas but there is lots to do..workshop filled with Christmas projects and Halloween costumes in the making...

On Friday and Saturday we helped Betty get all the garden art in for the winter..wow, lots of work...because they were calling for possible snow this week Betty thought we should concentrate on getting the water pump out of the pond..which meant we had to empty it, take the pump out and refill...that way she explained the liner would becovered for the winter...Betty had her high boots on because the pond is actually almost 5' deep, told us not to help out just keep an eye that she didn't fall in...taught us the 911 number just incase
