From apples to pumpkins. OH MY.-Primo Gif.

Well apple time as well as the summer is gone for another year. and if interested, we have 74 apples in the decorations. But with the fall we have a pumpkin theme. And no I don’t know how many pumpkins were used. But as always we have pictures.

Putting the apples away and bringing out the pumpkins.

A few add ons before we start the show. We got a shaker chair to go with the farm implement, Russy the Rooster, and the jug. It cost $1.00.

This original shaker chair goes for about $1,200.

Here’s a few projects completed.

Items we collected and bought this week.

So sit back and enjoy the pictures my friends. Pumpkin mania is here.

Who says you can’t go back? We did 34 years later. Hale Farm.

In a continuation of our 33rd Wedding Anniversary we went back to a place we visited 34 years ago. Yes a year before we married. So I hope you enjoy the pictures and if ever in Ohio, please visit. Hale Farm.

An autumn day at Hale Farm.

At the Cuyahoga Valley’s southwestern edge sits an impressive three-story red brick house surrounded by 140 acres of fields, gardens, and woods. Familiar to many school children, it is now a popular regional attraction that overlooks a recreated historical village.

Despite the building’s grandeur, Hale Farm began like any other farm: with hard work. In 1810, farmer Jonathan Hale arrived in Bath to begin a new life on he Western Reserve.

For over one hundred years, generations of the Hale family worked and managed their land. In the early 1900s, the farm passed to Jonathan’s grandson, C.O. Hale, a kind and ambitious man who hired local families as farm laborers. Part of a newer trend in “gentleman farming,” C.O. Hale oversaw the work on his property and earned additional income by entertaining friends and tourists.

Jonathan Hale and his family settled in the Cuyahoga Valley in 1810 and began a tradition of farming, family and entrepreneurship. In 1956 Clara Belle Richie, the great granddaughter of Jonathan, bequeathed the family farm to the Western Reserve Historical Society, “to be established as a museum so that the greatest number of persons might learn about the history and culture of the Western Reserve.”

The museum first opened its doors in 1958, and over the course of the next 60+ years the Hale’s family farm was transformed into a experiential learning laboratory. It is this space that has been the platform for delivering programming which provides a lifetime of social value.

Let’s hear it for the birds.

Any band or song with a birds name in it. Although eagles are the most common bird that is referenced in music, there are plenty of other great bird songs that are worth listening to. After all, what’s a better fantasy to live out in a song than spreading your wings and taking to the sky? This is a ranked list of all songs about birds, including songs about eagles, doves, swans, seagulls and more. Some of the songs included below may have the words “bird” in the lyrics or title, while others are only about birds as a subject or theme.

Songs like The Beatles’ “Blackbird” instantly come to mind when thinking of bird songs, but what about lesser known tracks like “Vultures” by John Mayer?

Music isn’t typically categorized by the meaning of the words, so this music list is a great way to find some solid tracks that are thematically similar. Vote for the birds songs that you enjoy the most

How much exercise do you get, don’t count the 12 oz. curls. I for one believe in a exercise plan. I became more serious after my open heart surgery. I walk five days a week. Also I have a weight lifting program I follow three days a week.

I don’t jog and I don’t jump rope. So how about you?

CDC has declared that it’s no longer necessary for Californians to wear socks with their sandals. It doesn’t protect you from COVID-19. But seriously folks. Who will be the first to admit that they wear socks with their sandals?

For some reason, that was always the thing in California. Especially in the San Francisco and Sacramento . So fess up. Are you a sandal-sock wearer?

NOT I.

Let’s hear it for the cartoons.

For entire generations of kids, some of their most fond memories are of watching Saturday morning cartoons. The animated shows that became instant classics entertained children across the country and most had a special theme song that was so catchy, kids just couldn’t forget it. What are the greatest cartoon theme songs of all time?

The cartoons on this list, especially those with the top 10 cartoon theme songs have some of the most memorable musical intros in television history. They kept kids hooked on the show and still resonate even today.
