Back Yard Fall Colors


This is looking south from our back door through our back yard with the Fall colors. The back forest has a beautiful blanket of yellow leaves on the ground. Crisp nights. Fairly warm days (so far). Soon this will be all white with snow. Barney recently installed our wood burning stove. It works now. It's so nice and warm (hot). We love it. Barney also made a new dog run in the back of the yard. You can sort of see it between the back of the truck and the front of the trailer behind the truck. He's also getting a piece of ground ready (just behind the truck cab) to pour cement for a small garage our friend is giving us. He will also be pouring cement for a retaining wall in the side yard and sidewalks down both sides of the garage. We are trying to get the outside ready for winter so when spring comes we will be ready to plant a garden and grass front and back, and flowers to brighten things up around here next year. He's also been trimming alot of the trees on the side of our yard (front of truck) as well as partially cutting down a couple of other trees elsewhere in the yard. He has been soooooooo busy. Great job Barney. I am painting our living room a pale yellow from a very dark burgandy. It will take several base coats to cover up enough for the very pale top color. It wil look nice with the dark hardwood floor and white ceiling, trim and baseboards.
