Wow! October is almost over!

It’s hard to believe we have been in Westport for over a month already. So far, the weather has not been as bad as we thought it would be. The temps have been in the high 50s to low 60s – very nice. There have been plenty of overcast days with rain and wind, but the sun eventually shows up and dries us out. We manage to get out to walk the cats, putter around the rig, walk along the beaches, watch surfers, and to explore the surrounding areas.
On Friday, we woke to heavy rain and winds, so we decided it was time for a trip to Elma. We ate breakfast at the Rusty Tractor and visited a variety store with lots of fabrics. Since that did not take long, we soon found ourselves on our way to Olympia to do some more shopping. We went to a farmer’s market and bought some apples. Delicious! We got our fill of shopping at all the major chains: Target, Borders, PetCo, etc. Felt good! Doesn’t help save money for Alaska though. Speaking of Alaska, we got our Milepost 2009 so we can start doing our research for our trip. It’ll be time to go before we know it.

Hummingbird feeder for the cats. For those who like to hear about Sandy’s quilt adventures, she has started her own quilt blog. You can find the link on the right under My Blog List.
Dan has a new Panasonic DMC-ZS3 digital camera. It takes very sharp pictures. A quick point & shoot that is light weight and easy to carry in his pocket. Except for the hummingbird photo, all the pictures are from the new camera.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
