October





Fire District Open House

Bike rides through the forest and beside the ocean.




A poultry CSA is beginning and was harvesting ducks behind a barn at the pumpkin patch. We peeked in (they use a really awesome mobile processing trailer that is rented out to each farmer) and asked a ton of questions. Who knew that kosher killing was still so brutal? On the flip side, at least the ducks get to hang out in an air conditioned car quietly quacking their qoncerns.

Apple stand stock-up.
I learned the difference between a box and a lug. We brought cider home to freeze and apples to cook into applesauce.

Bring on the artists! Creativity is strong and growing by the day.

Coast Guard Open House. Climbing through boats, helicopters, ambulances and knot tying for pre-schoolers.

"Pumpkin stew, pumpkin stew. What do you put in your pumpkin stew?"

( I sing the song with my preschool classes. The kids have some hilarious ideas)

"Potatoes!"

"Chop, chop, chop. Drop, drop, drop!"

"Sip it, sip it, Yummy!"
