The forecast for the weekend of Oct. 26 - 27 was for cold weather and up to six inches of snow. But the forecast constantly changed and we only got a dusting of snow and some interesting cloud scenes.
We were able to wash all windows that opened inside and out both downstairs and upstairs. But, in our stairwell, the windows are on the same level as the second floor, so it takes ladders to clean them inside and outside. Our second floor bedroom has some windows that do not open. And their are rain gutters needing to be cleaned. So I sent these photos to a company I had seen working in our HOA and we have a contract with them to do all the windows we could not do and the rain gutters, so I will not be climbing the ladder to reach those heights.
We have been getting Paulie to climb the six stairs from the living room up to our front door, and sometimes even part way up to the second floor.
On Halloween, I sat outside and put candy for kids on the small table in front of me. I only saw the four kids from next door (with their parents and grandmother) and two kids brought by car.
Patty found out where to get a permit to cut a Christmas tree in Coconino National Forest. So some time after Nov. 15, we will go into the woods, search for a tree and hopefully find one that fits our home.
Patty gave me a shopping list that included pureed pumpkin for some squash soup - I could not find anything that said that on the label, so I took pictures of this variety, texted them to Patty and she accepted this. The soup was excellent.
And so another ten days have passed. The election was held on Nov. 3 - no final decision even as I write this on the 6th. Covid-19 numbers are continuing to set record highs here in Flagstaff (below is from the local paper) and throughout the country (now over 100,000 new cases per day) - predictions are that it will get even worse.
