A Little Bit

Where did September go?  The clouds have held the sun hostage for over 2 months, allowing only brief appearances, so we don't forget the light giver. Today I saw glorious rays and felt warmth. I have been wanting to slow cook a batch of applebutter, with 40 degree nights Cortlands are calling me. 

Drove 64 miles round trip to deliver the BCS and the flail mower to the shop, groaning at the gas dollars all the way. It has to be done, can't do any field work without the Beast, but the repair bill is going to be a hardship. Blows the whole day when I'm running, not getting other necessary tasks done. Sort of the 80/20 Principle thing.
