Mom's first (and probably last) experience with a chair lift. They weren't running, but you could sit in them and they would gently rock. Very relaxing. They might make a nice backyard swing. The plaid jacket Molly is wearing was a close-out on a side-walk sale in Keystone that we paid $15 for.
This fox hat was on sale for about $300.
Even though the days and nights are getting cooler now, we haven't had frost yet and the yard is still looking pretty good. The marigolds and petunias went crazy this year, but the pansies didn't fare so well.
I'm still keeping up my wicked lawn skilz. I think I have the only privately-owned gas edger in Highlands Ranch.
The Virginia Creeper on the back fence has turned some beautiful colors.
The tomatoes this year were a big dud. Most were golf-ball size and we get a half-bowl per week.They are starting to look a bit ragged now that the temperatures are dropping. The first big frost will be their demise, but the warm days have held on a bit later than in prior years so we're still getting a few for sandwiches and salads.
