Today was a typical fall day: heavy , cold rain in the morning and clouds and blue sky in the afternoon.

We moved several pieces of equipment indoors for the winter. The calves and cows have pretty much stopped bawling and decided to get on with their lives.

I went to Syracuse in the afternoon and met Mary and Jim for dinner. My oldest daughter called from New Hampshire to discuss her new job. Then, my youngest daughter called from college to talk about her new found interest in geology. Then, my second oldest son called from Florida.

All in all, an easy but satisfying day.
