Fall

Pictures of what we see these days. The scarlets were brightest a week before, but it was raining all the time. I will never be tired of how pretty it is here. Cudos to Babette for getting all her vacation photos uploaded. I got some prints from Snapfish of our various trips, they were good as well as fast.

We haven't been doing alot. Finally finished the fence so Beau can go out unsupervised. It was trial and error as neither of us knew what we were doing, but using Michelle's husbands trick with the metal rods instead of setting posts made it easier.

Still no job for Em. She got an interview for the Child Center, but that's not looking promising. She's doing fine with her online class, but really is bored being home. I wish I could do something about it. Last Sunday I dragged her out of bed at an ungodly hour for an adventure in antique hunting. The biggest antique market in Europe is 2 hours from here in Tongren, Belgium. We took off at 5:30 AM! The fog was bad all week, and it slowed me down so we got there at 8:00. Amazing how many vendors - this is definitely the grandaddy of all shows. You name it, it was there. There are also quite a few antique shops, which I didn't get to see. We spent 4 hours going from stall to stall (two indoor warehouses and the main street, a marketsquare and a winding side street. Fun! Emily wants to go back for more waffles. I didn't find the sideboard I'm looking for, so the hunt is still on.
