Friday Finish!

 

It seems like I never have enough time lately. Trying to get things cleaned up this week and filling boxes for items to go to the church yard sale and other items I donate to a local thrift store. I know so many of us have been stashing things and collecting things but we also know, we can never finish them all and don't want to spend our time cleaning up around clutter.

I saw this cute ghost on a Pinterest page, so not sure where it came from but it has finished ghosts and patterns on the same page. I didn't do them as nice as the original, but thought it was something fun to try. I have a prim christmas tree that I decorate for the seasons, so they were perfect to add to my halloween tree.

We have been getting out when the weather is nice and one of our favorite places is the Boy Scout camp. There aren't too many people so we basically have the place to ourselves and lots of different areas to walk around. This time we went to the other side of the camp and to the hidden pond. I found out that they did not know it was there, until a fire cleared the area and there it was. Now it has paths that go around it and it is a beautiful spot to sit and relax.

Another plan we visited was Old furnace. It is a nice hike up a hill to the cliffs with side paths to the other side of the pond. I was hoping for more color in the trees, but it is still a beautiful spot to enjoy the views.

And we finally got on the Connecticut rail trail and tried a new section. It was a nice ride and we passed several rivers along the way.

We also passed several ponds and swamp areas. 

We rode to the next town and on the way back we stopped at the waterfalls for a break. It was a great place to ride and hopefully we can get out more before the weather gets too cold. 

Tomorrow will be too wet from the rains today and tonight, so I am hoping we can enjoy some foliage and a stop at the fabric mill. Today we finalized the sale on our Minnie Winnie. I was looking forward to weekends this year but with the new problem, it would not be fixed in time and I had enough of it costing more to keep fixing it and not getting to use it. I may use the money for a kitchen island or bathroom redo, so next I need to find a good local company and see what the costs are. I hope you all have a nice weekend and get out and enjoy the fall weather.
