First snow...

Didn't get out soon enough to get a photo of the snow...it was very light...only about an inch on the valley floor. Much more in the mountains...a foot or more.

My daughter posted seeing a guy trying to snow blow the inch of snow off his sidewalk! Ha! Guess he must have had a new snow blower he was wanting to break in.

Dan and I ventured over to the Scheels store...really, really big sporting goods place...they have a Ferris wheel in the middle...and animatronic Presidents...and so much more. Anyway...it was a good place to walk on a cold, windy day.

Can't believe Thanksgiving is only a few days away. Hope to post more pics soon.

Dog Bliss


It was one of the last days of 60 degree weather, so we took Baby and Buster to the doggie park. All the little doggies there were running and playing and having so much fun...as if they knew this might be the last time they came before winter sets in.

It's suppose to snow this weekend...here on the valley floor...and a lot in the Sierras.

We've been enjoying my homemade veggie soup all week...and I think we'll graduate to chili this weekend.

Hello!



Neat photo...that I didn't take...but the trees look a lot like they did last week. This week...most of the beautiful colors have turned brown and rest in piles on the grass.

I've been remiss about posting...mostly because I haven't done a lot of walking the past couple of weeks. I have done a few short bursts several times a day, and have continued to be a little more active than I had been.

The cooler weather has prompted me to start cooking again! That's a big improvement over take out...and so much tastier.

Maybe if I just post more often, I'll challenge myself again. Let's hope...

Here are a couple of more good photos showing autumn in Reno.
