The harvest party at the community garden.
Thanks to Laurie and Mike, the neighborhood celebrated a harvest party at the community garden. We feasted upon pumpkin soup with blue cheese, hot cider, piping macaroni and cheese, pumpkin-cream cheese loaf, a winter veggie casserole, and salad. The fading sun drew away every last drop of warmth from the ground and we realized that winter is not far away.
The kids collected "treasures" from the area behind the woodpile.
Their stash included an old license plate and the myth of a former "carriage-maker" who inhabited the area. The myth, of course, was Maxer's contribution to the findings. A good story begins with a horseshoe.
The old woodshed keeps its secrets.
