FALL

Fall is one of my favorite times of year. I love the chill in the air and the leaves changing. It is so beautiful at the ranches right now. The leaves are all bright yellow and a little orange all along the river bottoms and at the farm, so pretty. The sun rise and sun sets have been so pretty bright pink and so pretty over the St. Augustine plains. Colten was really funny the other day when we were driving at sunset I said "look at the pretty sunset." and he sat there for a minute then said " I really wish I could saddle up my horse and ride him into that sunset" where he got that from I don't know but it was pretty funny.

This weekend we had a little break from hunting and decided to go camp down by Alma at Mineral Creek. We spent a few days hiking up this awesome canyon. It was full of berries and tons of beautiful scenery. The river was so fun there was tons of water holes with fish in them. Jay had a line and a hook that he connected to a stick and made Harvey a fishing pole they were pulling fish out as fast as they put the line in. Harvey loved it. There were lots of water falls that you could slide off of into these pools of water. The canyon had a mine at the top. We had a great day. On our way home we went through Mogollon the ghost town which was very neat its like you stepped way back in time in a western mining town. Then we made the loop home on the dirt road through beautiful country. It was a great weekend.
