A little bit of controversy, a whole lot of nothing specific.

.

Let’s start with some roadside autumn color.

.

.

Is it any wonder this is my favorite time of year?

.

.

Nice try.

My booty does not have a phone.

.

.

I post this for a reason.

Not being a religious person, I take the separation of church and state seriously. In the United States we have the freedom to worship as we choose and I fully support that. If you want to promote bring your Bible to school day at your private Christian academy… fine, please do so. But this announcement was released at a public, tax payer funded school and yes, I have a problem with that.

.

.

That’s pretty much where I am.

I don’t need a supreme being to shame/suggest/command me to do the right thing and help others.

I just do.

.

.

There.

That’s it for my controversial topics. Religion and politics. Checked them both.

😊

Now, a little of our backyard autumn color.

.

.

And since my husband finished two walls and the roof on the shed extension? Since his new toy is covered and protected from the elements?

He thinks he’s done and hung an old cavas tarp instead of building a door.

.

.

Boy, have I got news for him.

🤨

.

.

Greenhouse support hoops are starting to appear across the road.

Our lovely view’s days are numbered.

.

.

But voila!

My husband attached the new light fixture on the front porch properly… and though I was beginning to think it would never happen?

.

.

We are officially calling the remodel complete.

When I have time, I’ll dig out some before and after pics for comparison.

😉

.

And so it begins.

.

Tear down of our old rotted front porch has commenced.

.

.

This is the part I’m more than happy to have my husband do.

.

.

It keeps him busy and there’s no finesse or fine tuning required.

.

.

Of course once he starts… he looks around and thinks about replacing more than just the decking.

.

.

And as with any project at our house…

.

.

Rotted wood we never knew about is discovered.

.

.

He was hoping he wouldn’t have to replace the frame underneath…

.

.

But so much of it is bad he’ll have to.

.

.

Sigh…
