Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by!
Morning......sometimes it seems like I just went to bed! Where does the time go? Being Monday, there was no real plan for the day except that we were hiking at 1:30.
That being the case, I showered and then fixed a mocha along with some oatmeal for breakfast. If you read yesterday’s post, this coffee this morning was a special deviation from the past month and a half, as I had been drinking half-caf. However yesterday, we roasted some new untried pea berry coffee from Brazil and I wanted to get the full flavor. It was absolutely wonderful!! Dark, woodsy, earthy, chocolate, deep coffee! An excellent bean!☕️☕️☕️
After that, I began peeling the apples I had collected from one of our apple trees. I ended up using the Dutch oven to cook them in and now have some truly organic applesauce! Tasty!😋
1:30 was approaching, so we got our gear together to go. Jan, our neighbor was ready to go.
It was a warm and windy day. There was concern over wildfire danger, but honestly, compared to what is happening over in the eastern part of the state-it seems that there shouldn’t have been the concern for us. We have ground here that still shows dampness and it is not a wetland. Yes, we do have undergrowth that can be dry and standing dead trees. We are mainly a cedar and fir forest type which can burn very easily, but the eastern side of our state is much drier and much hotter. I know that there are many states battling wildfires. We need a ton of rain all the way around!
We headed up the upper trail and not too far in, I captured the pic behind the Fitbit stats. It is of a Vine Maple in full fall color!
I wanted to take a pic of the sky and the sun shining through the trees and also managed to capture in the photo as well!😁
and her cousins Wellington and Windsor, were having a good time in the forest today. Jan brought them a ghost pumpkin to play with while they posed for their picture. They loved it!
After the hike, we set up to practice the set for Sunday’s service this coming weekend. This will be the first time in 6 months we’ve actually done music from church!
A little dinner and blogging and then it will be time for bed. I’m tired!
Take care and have a good night wherever you are! Keep on steppin’! 🥰👣☕️🐑💕
