You picked the perfect time. 79 acres...that is just amazing!Betsy Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807795605763246015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-56336023823857295202011-09-02T08:33:21.097-05:002011-09-02T08:33:21.097-05:00sounds like a lovely day.

It's hard to believe the heat you're getting there. I'd collapse after a half an hour of walking in it! <br /><br />I can sure see the tell tale signs of Autumn with the colors and few scattered leaves on the ground, I'm wondering how this can be so with such high temperatures. <br /><br />Enjoy your weekend!darlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04886502544010479581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-85951021625590455822011-09-01T20:23:58.729-05:002011-09-01T20:23:58.729-05:00What?!?!
