Litchfield CT Visit with Priscilla & Her Friend Mary
This is where you enter the church
I sell insurance for this company, Litchfield Mutual, such a small place when now a days insurance companies are so HUGE
Priscilla and her Mary
The out side of the church
One of my clients owns this company, for years I have been meaning to stop by and never get the chance so this was fun for me to finally go in there, he makes the most amazing furniture
The outside of my clients furniture store, it's an old Blacksmith shop from years ago
Some of the carvings inside the church

Alpha, stained glass from Tiffany's
We had a windy night...
The nighbors tree fell in their own yard thank goodness, if it fell the other way, it would have landed on our shed. Last year in an ice storm it did drop some branches on our shed, no damage and they even came over our yard and cleaned up the mess.
After but the next day
Before
This is the front lawn, it started raining before he could get them scooped up so he had to leave it for today if it dries up a bit

Mouse vs Cat
Corey was nice to save this mouse after school from the cats but I don't think he is going to make it. I don't really care for mice in my house and I love to see my cats "get" one but that usually means they are dead, this one is alive and now I don't know what to do with it. I put him in the basement , yeah call me a sucker, I really wish he would just expire on his own and I won't feel bad
I forgot about these pictures...
Who doesn 't like these fuzzy critters?
Do you think I like wood?
These are some of my fall/winter projects coming along. When done, I'll put up a picture of them finished. Maybe someone would like to guess what they will become?
The stuff to the right is the new load of wood, it's two rows back
My nephew Tyler came over and stacked the new load we got this year. This picture is what we had left over from last year

Peeping Tom
I was sitting in the living room reading a book and I caught some movement outside on the deck, since both the cats were sitting on the chair with me and it was kind of late for a visitor, I got up and this guy was coming to ring the door bell!!

Fall Colors and new tree's
This is the smaller of the two tree's
There are about 4-5 of these
This is the bigger of the two new tree's (Chestnuts?)
This is the entire tree, I should get a tie down to straighten it because a couple of winters ago, 1/2 of it broke off in an ice storm so it leans to the heavy branch side (this side)
Maureen was right about the Kousa Dogwood and you can eat the berries but they don't taste good except to wildlife, when I went out to take the picture a squirrel was on there eating but I scared him off
