Just a quick snap shot to show you that fall is in the air. I've been worried that things weren't going to start dropping leaves - staying green so long. Not that I am looking forward to winter but after the early October snow storm several years ago, when we had trees full of leaves one day and a yard full of downed tree limbs the next, I would really like the leaves to be turning and starting to fall before the snow. Isn't that the way the seasons work most places??
Danica and Tabor came over to see us in Bend last weekend. Tabor played and played with this ancient Fisher-Price barn. Most of time he is very serious and intent....
Make sure your sound is on.... you gotta hear the dorky gramasan on this clip and the yawning grampasan......oh and a few 'boohs' and jabbers from Tabor. You may wonder why the big deal about the white cow with brown spots - it wasn't until this last weekend that Tabor realized that not all cows are black or dark brown. We'd show him a white cow in a book - no reaction - a black cow he would booh/moo.
I can't seem to upload videos to the blog so here's a link to picasa:

Just happened to be the weekend of the model train club open house.... Tabor really, reaallllly wanted to get in there and play of course.
We hung around outside for quite awhile waiting our turn to ride one of the outdoor model trains. Yes, Tabor is saying choo-choo in this picture.

Finally - all aboard!!
That is a real working model steam engine.
Just crossed the trestle and now we are waiting our turn - once the other trained passed we had to wait like a real train for the track to switch.
We actually went to an open house for this train club - mid 1990's - when they only had the indoor set up in a storage unit. Can't really remember the size of the indoor layout at that time but I think it has probably doubled with tons of great detail. Will have to make this a regular fall event!

Watch the video if you don't believe me.
