October 2006 - Company Comes

Autumn arrived and so did some city folks looking for a countrified good time. Jeff and his Uncle Palmer did some chores, cleaning up dead trees, chopping  and transporting cooking wood for dinner.










The ladies visited at the campsite after touring Covo Hills with Jeff on the ATV. Aunt Rita enjoyed the ride, but Chris (my mom) kept her eyes closed and held on for dear life. Jeff shouted questions back to her but heard no response, so he rode around until she yelled, "Yes, I saw the corn" and "The view from up here is beautiful"and "Can we quit now?"

We stayed by the fire from dusk to darkness, watching the fireflies in the cornfield, when suddenly the ladies saw the lights come on in the condos above the distant trees. "There's no condos over there!" Jeff exclaimed. "That's the glow of the moon over the trees." We all laughed.
