WELCOME to The High Country of Tuolumne County

It is such a pleasure to welcome you to my blog!

Hope that you enjoy the smell of fresh air, the songs of the birds - even if they are woodpeckers putting holes in your cabin walls! Let me know how you like this "new enterprise" of mine!

The WEATHER is a'changin

Time to pull the sweaters out, cover the swamp cooler, clean out the gutters and downspouts and DON'T WAIT TOO LONG either!! Thundershowers today following a gulley washer or TWO last Monday/Tuesday says that winter is on the way!  I could smell the wood stove smoke in MiWuk last Tuesday morning and while it was supposed to be in the high 80s Friday and Saturday, the cooler weather came in sooner and had all the various yard sales running for the tarps!  We haven't made it over the Sonora Pass to see the aspen leaves and after today, there might not BE ANY left on the trees. 

I had some friends harvesting apples this weekend so at least it was cooler than it has been!  We had better figure out a way to squeeze Ducking for Apples into our church Festival on the 30th - that is ALWAYS a winner!  We had one young man who figured out that if he took the apple to the bottom of the "pan" the resistance would allow him to snag it with his teeth - he just had to hold his breath while doing it!! 

Have a FUN event in October - Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming up FAST!
