Happy Fall! it's starting in a most fall-like manner here: cloudy, damp. The last few days the leaves have really started to color up in spite of experts warning that because of the dry summer, we would be short on color. I guess the rain that we've had this month ( about 2 inches) has changed that.

One of our Amish neighbors is having an auction today. He lost his wife a couple of years ago to breast cancer, she was one of the neighborhood girls that my girls had grown up with. Apparently, he's met an Amish widow from Ohio and going to marry her and move out there. Most of the Amish in Clymer either came from eastern Ohio, or from western Pennsylvania. One of his brothers-in-law is buying the house and land. I asked Stan if he was going down, and he said probably not, they are kind of cutthroat at this type of auction. I did notice that he took the check book with him when he went to check the heifer at my mom's, though.
