TBW Daily Diary

Columbus Day, overcast and definitely chilly. . . Bob and his niece, Trish, went to a public sale where her dad (Bob's brother) was the auctioneer. Bob came home with a new pitcher. We really, really needed another one (hah) . . . Tyler and Lelia Simmons spent their day off from school helping mom Sharon and Victoria Zellers rake up the leaves. They truly devoted themselves to the work; I rewarded them with packages of cheese crackers, Lelia's favorite . . . the town was empty, but everyone who came by The Bare Wall today bought boxed Christmas cards or tree ornaments. I guess the weather induced a seasonal mood and reminded us that the big holidays aren't all that far away . . .
