Happy Halloween!


We've been ghosted twice! Thanks to the Taylor family and to an anonymous ghoster (we have a couple of suspects...). It has been the highlight of the week.

Snow is here!

It snowed today!

An afternoon hike

Today after class, we took a hike and had a picnic on a little hill. There is a great view of our town from there. Then we picked some blackberries. It's time for homework now...
