Sunny and chilly with highs in the mid 50’s and very breezy.

A very busy two days at the store. Yesterday we did just over $200.00. Today we did well over $200.00 and that was with half price paperbacks. Lots of out of town folks both days. Today, we had several big donations come in to process and put on the shelves. The store was very busy all day up until late this afternoon. A very good start to the month.

Cloudy this morning then the rain moved in around noon. A nice, slow drizzle all day with highs in the mid 60’s. Rain will stick around until sometime tomorrow before moving out of here.

A good day at the store. I had vacuuming duties which took up most of the morning. We were busy with customers off and on during the day. We ended up doing almost $100.00 due to a couple of big sales this afternoon.

Sunny and cool with highs in the mid 60’s. We had a brief shower sometime early this morning but did not amount to much in rainfall.

Gym this morning. Lunch then back into town for my Friends of the Library meeting. From there I went on to Donna’s for crafting. No farm or wild life joined us today.

It was a slow week at the store through yesterday. But today we were busy most of the day with out of town folks visiting for the day or the weekend. We did well over $200.00 today which was more than we made the for the week so a good in to the month.

A slow day at the store. I worked by myself which was fine. Not many customers or sales. I processed a couple of donations and worked on organizing some shelves, etc.

Another lovely day in the mountains. Started off in the upper 30’s with some light frost then highs this afternoon in the upper 60’s and calm winds.

Gym this morning then home, lunch, and Donna’s for crafting afternoon. We had the usual visitors of one chicken, one cat, a squirrel, and some baby deer.

After some clouds this morning and a low in the 40’s the sun came out around midday and temperatures made it into the upper 50’s with a slight breeze.

Two busy days at the store. Leave peepers and other out of town folks brought in a lot of business to the town. We did well over $100.00 yesterday and almost $200.00 today. Had a couple of small donations to process as well.

Another beautiful day in the mountains. The fall color is not that great this year between the drought and the lack of any frost. Lows in the low 40’s and highs in the low 70’s with a breeze.

A busy day at the store. Still lots of folks coming up to see the trees and do some shopping. We did over $100.00 and had a couple of nice donations. I also worked on some of the stuff in the back room.

A nice fall day in the mountains. After lows in the upper 30’s we made it into the mid 60’s by this afternoon with a breeze.

Gym this morning then I came home and did some yard stuff. Dumped the last couple of pots with annuals and pulled up what we still in the beds by the garage and the mailbox. Then I trimmed back the two rose of Sharon bushes and the perennials for next year.

After lunch it was off to Donna’s to craft. Only two of us today and just the chicken came to visit us in the she shed.

A cold front came through last night bringing a little bit of rain but some chilly temperatures. Upper 39 this morning and a high in the upper 40’s with 20 to 30 mph wind gusts.

Two great days at the store. Fairly busy yesterday with sales over $100.00. Today was busy most of the days with sales over $200.00. Leaves are almost at the peak color so we had leaf peepers plus art studio tours bringing a lot of folks into the county.
