Old Folks Home

     The traffic was unusually light as Kaia and I motored to the OFH today. Even crossing Minneapolis I hardly needed to slow below the posted speed limits. A strong west wind gave us excellent gas mileage. With nearly an inch and a half of rain yesterday and unfavorable weather predicted for the week we came early for Thanksgiving.  With unfrozen ground and nice rainfall it will all soak in. It's a great boost for soil moisture, grass and trees. Evaporation is minimal this time of the year.

     There are new neighbors near The Little House. When the occupant fenced his yard I assumed it was for his two dogs. As I drove by it yesterday I saw to other four footed critters both of whom had horns. The previous owner had chickens and now there are mammals!  Any guesses about their make?  When I return I'll get some pictures.

Takk for alt,
