Home from Canada - 3 geese and 16 ducks

The river is high. Jim & Milt got 2 ducks
Milt was a friend of my Dad. I think he was older than Dad, but younger than my Grandparents. My only memories of him are that he tied flies and he once made us homemade ice cream in a bucket with a crank on it.

They spent these days in Minneapolis. I would imagine it was for business. Grandpa was the head of Dairyland Electric Co-op.

Finished winterizing the house.
4 mallards in the creek, 2 on the river.
Canadian ducks for supper.

Sprinkling of snow during the nite.
Jim & Milt hunting
Light snow starting at 8 a.m. Dark and gloomy day. Lights on at 3:30 p.m.
I just noticed that this calendar has little quotes and helpful hints at the bottom of every page:
Everyone hath a fool in his sleeve.
HOW TO REMOVE STAINS (4)
Clear coffee and fruit stains: Stretch stained goods over a bowl and pour boiling water from a height.
I think I'm going to start doing these updates by the month. This week-to-week thing is going too slow and she doesn't always have enough to say in a week that makes it worthwhile.
