• Operation Christmas Cheer
It is a mix of weather here. Short bouts of heavy rain, but no thunder or lightning. Cloudy mornings, sunny afternoons. Trying to enjoy it all because after 12/25, I don't want to think about snow!
 
Happy Monday everyone! Scored my yearly cider beer today from the orchard along with a few bushels of apples. Yes I survived the elk hunt and scored a 6x6, we put a mnt lion up a tree next to us. I told everyone "Dont pet the kitty!!" Our llamas didnt like it at all and the horses were very agitated. I ended up with a full blown cold thats still lingering.
Sounds like a nice trophy. Not sure I want to see a treed mountain lion--that would be just a pounce too close for me. My dad was bow hunting and got treed by a bear once, that wasn't a good time either.

Hope you cold gets better quickly.
 
Not so wild to me. When I was five or six, I was chased by a bunch of domesticated ducks--you have never experienced terror until you have multiple ducks "biting" your calves!
LOL! That would be terrifying! My best friend growing up had domesticated geese at her house and what I remember as a very LONG sidewalk... the geese would wait until I was halfway between my mom's car and my friend's back door before they would start heading me way!

Yeah, geese aren't any nicer than ducks and don't get me started on brooding chickens!
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 57
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 35


Happy Autumn Mid-Week! Today folks we have 57 days remaining until Thanksgiving and 35 days to go until November. Our next milestone will be tomorrow folks so be here for Tom Turkey Day #10. We move along in our Awesome Autumn with our Weekly Wednesday poll below as always!

If you had a choice how many Thanksgivings would we have a year?

  • 1 (it makes it the most special)
  • 2 (I could be ok with every 6 months)
  • 3 (Every 4 months would be awesome)
  • 4 (every quarter we should have a Thanksgiving)
  • Temptation plays a role in this poll. As much as I absolutely love Thanksgiving though C & D would dilute it. B? I could probably go for. I don’t think it would hurt it (probably wouldn’t fee as special in May as it does in November though with the holiday season in front of us). I’m going to go with A. Just like with Christmas it comes once a year and that makes it the most special. How about you? Keep it real turkey fans and enjoy your middle of the week. Have a great Autumn Mid-Week!​
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 56
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 34


Happy Late September! Today folks we have 56 days remaining until Thanksgiving and 34 days to go until November. Today is our milestone folks and it is Tom Turkey Day #10! We made it to another big Tom Turkey Day with only 1 left to go in front of us. Sunday folks we will reach our next milestone which will be the Arrival Of October. I can’t believe that but folks we are in our Awesome Autumn so you have to expect these things to happen. Below is our Thanksgiving Thought Thursday!

I wonder if we could count how many times people say the word “Thanksgiving” if it would be less than or more than the word “Halloween” or “Christmas” during the whole year? I think Christmas would definitely win. I think so at least. I really don’t know if Thanksgiving is talked about more than Halloween is year-round or mentioned. I think Halloween has more of a season and some people ignore Thanksgiving till…well Thanksgiving Week. So maybe Thanksgiving would be the 3rd most used word of those big 3 holiday words. What do you think? Just curious.

One of the reasons I started this thread, as I’ve said before is Halloween has a whole season. Christmas has a whole season. And on this site both are mentioned many times. Thanksgiving was overlooked I felt. Have a great Late September!​
 
Happy Tom Day! Only one more to go before the magic of Thanksgiving!

I told my wife last night that it's time to do another test batch of mac and cheese. She just rolled her eyes and laughed and said, "Don't you have this down by now?" And she's right...I could probably make mac and cheese in my sleep, but the selection of the cheese blend is important! I just like to experiment with different blends and see which ones taste the best.

I go for one a year, also. To be honest, I also think Thanksgiving is in the perfect spot. I like having the Big Three lined up about a month apart from each other.
