Hey you two! Willow IS so cute! My Willow is enjoying autumn because the squirrels are so busy! It makes me kinda melancholy because camping is coming to a close. It was 102° last week and today the 1st day of autumn it was rainy all day and 59°, much like where you are! Love the flowers! Karen, miss your cooking at your Kitchen, esp your soups! Tee, you should keep up the stories because your voice is so calming. Enjoy your first autumn with Willow!! May the adventure continue. Love from Newton, Ks -deneene ❤

We may get a day in the 80's this week which would be good to help get our tomatoes red. Willow is a joy to be around. Thank you for watching and thank you so much for your very kind comment.

I bet Willow will love the fall, chasing the leaves and feeling them crunch under her tiny paws. Wonderful new sensations for her! I appreciate all the seasons and try to make the most of all of them. I like the autumn for the changing landscape, the crisp cooler air, the abundance or orchard fruits and home baking! I really enjoyed this video especially with the wind chimes and soothing music. 😊

We took Willow for a walk on a forest path the other day. She loved the leaves, even tried eating them. She was a bit intimidated by some of the large tree stumps, guess she wasn't sure what they were. Ah yes, the home baking... Karen loves baking and I love eating what she bakes. That works out pretty good. The Washington apples are super delicious. Indeed, autumn is a nice time. Thanks for watching and for your comment

Perfect fall day, temp was 65 degrees, the forest was outstanding, leaves falling, the air fresh. I was up early this morning with Willow and I found the morning worthy of a future video. I really do feel privileged and honored to be able to have all these days as I know you do also. Thanks Tracie, its always great hearing from you and seeing your videos.

Tracie, why does it not surprise me that you would have toy slugs? We have one too. A friend of ours hid it in our house, now the grand kids play with him. Amazing your grandparents also built a log home. Had I been out here as a younger man, I think I would have done that too. After watching your video about the personality test, I hunted up the one I took when I was in the working world. It had me as a ENFJ. At the time I took the test I thought the description fit me pretty well. I wonder if personalities change over time and if I were to take the test today if I would be the same or different. I do like to converse with all kinds of people, everyone has a story. I like hearing them all. I really enjoy hearing your story, Tracie as I know so many other people do to. As always, great hearing from you and I'll be watching for you in videos to come.
