Antique Car Show



We got to take a short walk around an Antique Car Show held this weekend at the Pocono Race Track here. It was quite a big show, too much for us to see it all.

Fall



Yes, I can tell it's coming. Acorns are falling, we hear the loud 'ping' as they hit the metal roof of the storage sheds, the propane tank, and the pergola roof. Leaves are changing and falling almost immediately. It was the summer that never was here. We had so much rain, 7 inches over our normal rainfall. I think the robins and wood thrushes left in July and we haven't seen them since.
The hummingbird female may still be here - at least she was yesterday. She's been intrigued by a small ripe tomato on the plant outside the window. I've watched her buzz around that tomato
so many times. She's sure anything that color must surely have some nectar - lol

This week, I heard some branches snapping in the woods and spotted this buck rubbing the velvet from his antlers.
