Looking For Eagles


We ended our drive at our fave Restaurant, Jonah's

I only spotted four Eagles on our whole drive & hubby couldn't
stop for pics as there was traffic behind us.
I'll get some photos next time.


Geese coming for lunch

Looking at Peoria from across the river



Geese ate the whole time we did

Saying Goodbye to Autumn

Most of the trees are bare, but these berries

will stay till Spring.  The Robins and Cedar Wax Wings
love the FERMENTED berries
teehee
One new neighbor on our left side, the moved in in August
One more new neighbor moving in by Christmas, this makes our
3 home Cul De Sac a 5 home now.  We are full

We'll grill out all winter, but the furniture will be put in
a protected area under the deck.




Our campfire & rustic furniture
teehee
