Great pictures today, everyone! One of my Winter projects this year is to scan some old slides. A bunch of them are from when I first moved to New Mexico in the mid 1980's. Hiking down there at times was a real eye opener from hiking in the upper midwest. A black tail Rattlesnake enjoying the warmth on a rock in the Apache Box Canyon. Ron

Just raking leaves. The trucks are coming to do the curbside pickup of leaves. It's so much easier just raking them to the curb than the endless bagging. The leaves are hanging on the trees far longer than usual this year because of the extra-ordinarily warm September. Our yard waste pickup and leaf bagging programs are ending next week, and many trees haven't shed their leaves yet.

I did strength class at the gym. I had fallen a couple of weeks ago and hurt my butt and the small of my back and yesterday I noticed that I was finally able to put weights back onto the olympic bar when I was doing my squats so I'm on the road to recovery. Yea! I then took my nieces dog for a walk. She was at home when I got back and plied me with really good lemon white chocolate cookies. I suppose I could have said no, but I didn't.
