October

Here once again is the winner of the #1 veggie of the year award Sucrine Du Berry!!! yeahhhh. In September I showed this squash on the vine, now here is the reason it won. The flesh is a wonderful tasting delight and the color is even more orange after being cooked.



















Here is the chicken coop I built over the month of October. I loved working on this project for me ole college friend Heather. When I heard she had chickens I was motivated to help her out just thinking of the possibility of the chance to get one fresh egg. With Heather and her family on a farm not but a couple miles to the west of were I live in Willard it made for a nice job. The coop is made entirely from recycled wood and a lot of it old barn oak, no joy to hammer nails in.


One day in October I was talking to my Aunt Arlene about trees I should plant in my back yard to replace my lost austrees and that the only one I could think of was pecan and pin oak. Arlene soon warned me of the reasons not to plant pecan trees, and that I would regret it, if I did plant those trees. Arlene soon came up with good idea that she could help me with. Why not plant fruit trees and name them Arlene and Bill. So that's what I did. And also plant some friends to help the other fruit trees fruit.
