Good weekend with family in Eastern Iowa

54 degrees here in Clarinda, IA at 12 Noon Monday, high to be 60 degrees. Reported 32 degrees this morning, but no sign of frost at all.


Spent Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday morning at Cam & Patty's place near Marengo, IA.  Got last visit of this year--until next April--with most of the family.  Only grandson-in-law Derek wasn't there.




Phyllis had knitted a stocking cap for David and sewn a dress for Jessica and they posed for a picture with them.






Last week I drained the hot tub and moved it to the shop building.  Had developed a slow leak the last few weeks -- will have to see if can seal it next spring before setting it up.

Picked up a lot of small branches and made them in to short chips before throwing them over the hedge onto the hillside behind it.






Last week the soybean field directly across the street from our neighbor to the west was harvested.  These photos were taken from my driveway.

"Paint" by numbers - on the smartphone

 Recent weeks I got into several apps of paint by numbers and Phyllis also picked up on it.  Our phones are tied together, so saved pictures...
