I will get dressed soon so we can head out. But wanted to say hi first. Hoping for an easy day. But that depends on how much my friend buys.
Euchre will be starting a half hour early tonight. That makes it easier on 2 of us that have chickens. The days are getting shorter so we have to leave earlier. But soon we will be locking them up before going. I am taking a couple of puzzles as we often times have an extra person. We can take turns working on it.
Hope you have a good day.

@AmbiePam Hopefully she does well at euchre too! It sounds like they have a nice little group going, especially with everyone having to work around the chickens.

@FourWalls Thank you! It sounds like Eva has a full day planned, but hopefully both the auction and euchre turn out to be enjoyable.

It's mostly fruits and vegetables. But one guy brings in some other stuff from buying overstock pallets. I sometimes have extra grapes or cherries to sell

@dfollin That is a good question. From what she has shared, it sounds like the auction is mainly about finding things they like, although I am curious to know what her friend usually buys too.

@thislittlepennyearns I hatched some this summer. When they are big enough some of those will get butchered.

@wolfgirl569 That's not too bad. My sister has like 50. LOL. I think I will just stick to the four I have.

It sounds like a good, fun, and busy day.
Yes, the days are getting shorter. It's cooler here now, and I am glad to say goodbye to the 100+ degree days!

It sure did a number on our gardens here. Not very many were successful this year at all.

@MarieCoyle Same here. The gardens didn't produce as much as normal

Sounds like you had a full day planned between the auction, chickens and euchre. Starting earlier definitely makes sense as the days get shorter. The puzzles are a good idea for anyone waiting their turn too. Hope you had a fun evening!

@LadyDuck Thank you! Hopefully the auction goes well for them, and then they can enjoy a good game of euchre afterwards. Sounds like a nice way to spend the day.

@wolfgirl569 Sounds like you have a busy but enjoyable day ahead. Hopefully the auction goes smoothly and your friend does not buy so much that you end up struggling to get everything home! Have fun at euchre tonight too.

I just load her truck for her. Then others unload it.

@wolfgirl569 So you have the easy part figured out! You load the truck and let everyone else handle the unloading. That sounds like a pretty good arrangement.
