neigh









the brownie troop visited nickel-o farms. a fun & muddy time was had by all! what a hidden treat nestled in west nyack. 

this columbus day the four of us drove up to sugar loaf and warwick. we had a lovely time at the sugar loaf fall festival. we hand-dipped candles, made a weathervane, watched a loom in use all while listening to some americana singsongs - "flying trapeze" was a fav. the foliage was spectacular. the photo ops were abundant and why are there no pics? well, in the bustle of my last minute decision to trek up to orange county, i forgot my camera! ugh... how frustrating but it actually allowed me to be in the moment and enjoy. 

after the fair we drove up to this house in warwick that we have had our eyes on. it's dreamy really. eight acres of gorgeous land, room to run and run, spacious living, the deer and turkeys scattered as we drove up the super long driveway... but oh so far away! we would be far away from family and we would miss our dear friends. this has been consuming my thoughts lately but i have come back to the fact that i am indeed happy where i am. so i will trust in the stars on this one - i will be where i am meant to be....

I love that little pair of goats - so cute. I've passed Nickel-o so many times so it's nice to get a peek inside!
