I think that makes it about five generations old. I’d date it back to the late 1800’s. 1880 or so. My mom had it on her porch for years. I think I will re-glue the seat and store it somewhere.

Finding time to relax on a perfect autumn day❣️
Also enjoying wearing my ring from the Dominican Republic and the memories of going on that mission trip the summer after my senior year in high school.
I got brave and brought both dogs…
They did fine and I managed to not get tripped along the way. Chloe usually takes the high road and Zoe the low one… So they are always going in different directions and trying to tangle me up hahaha. It’s fun to have them along!
The beauty from last week’s hike in the woods
Sweet Arrow Reserve in Sugarcreek. It’s one of Laura’s favorites and I see why.
Snagged another I’ve been hoping to.
The nuthatch is so funny. Every time he arrives, he lands high up on the brick by our window, climbs all the way down, goes all the way across the windowsill, then hops on the feeder to take another seed or two, then leaves and starts the process all over again. At least I get a heads up that he’s coming, but he only stays for about two seconds…!

Getting some of the more unique visitors
Julie’s feeders attract a lot of neighborhood birds. Some are more rare than others and also come and go really quickly. The chickadees are one of those we see less and are only there for a few seconds. I was happy when they were frequenting it a few days again and I got these shots.
Trying one more thing…
Soaking my old watch movement and then lubing it to see if I can get it running better? You can’t buy service parts for it… I’m not holding out much hope… hmmmm. Maybe I can find a used movement somewhere. I am learning about maintanence, repair, assembly, etc. That’s pretty fun in the meantime. 
Their our team we feel the most at home with
It’s as close as we get to a “hometown” team these days. Andy they have great fan engagement. Bonus, their opening ceremony is really cool too.
Hockey season is back on, officially
Once the home opener for the Cyclones starts, it feels like Hockey season is back on for real :)
This fall’s colors have been super pretty
This was the view as I was walking past the neighbors house on the way home from Laura Marie Drive.

We found these nail tools years ago…
We got some glass nail files and cuticle pushers from the sauerkraut festival a few years ago. They’ve turned out to be really nice. I think they look cool too and I was messing around taking pictures of them. I recently found the vendor on Facebook and ordered a few more. :)
Trying something different.
We got some Ohio State Buckeye hockey tickets to see what a college game is like. We get to see them vs. Michigan!
