Hi sweetpeas,well just visiting y'all some,almost trew with treatments and meds,only 7 more days!

Last year was really good,I had lots of sales,all the pecans sold and most of the art.off to visit y'all awhile.
JUST FOUND THIS ON ALICElANDS AND THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE CAPTURED ESSACES OF FALL.JUST WONTED TO SHARE IT WITH Y'ALL.


November comes
And November goes,
With the last red berries
And the first white snows.

With night coming early,
And dawn coming late,
And ice in the bucket
And frost by the gate.

The fires burn
And the kettles sing,
And earth sinks to rest
Until next spring.
