After Thanksgiving

The weather has turned cold, but at least it's sunny.
We had a great holiday at the Retreat. Drew drove up on Wednesday night and stayed until Saturday afternoon -- a good long visit for him. He brought Petey; tried to get Skeeter and Petey to bond but it didn't happen. Killer Kat really resented the scent of Petey on Drew, and hissed at Drew anytime they got near each other. KK can tolerate the dog, but not another male cat!
We also had guests stay with us on Wed. and Thurs. evening. A very nice couple from southeast OK who were in town to spend the holiday with family members who live in Watonga. We had several interesting conversations, and we hope they come back to visit.
We spent some time at Whirlwind Winery, tasting, listening to music and talking with Brad, the owner; and we sent some wine home with Drew. We did some hiking at Roman Nose state park. We played Yatzee and Drew taught me some things about Facebook. Drew and I made smudge sticks out of lavender and sage I harvested earlier this year. The fall colors have been beautiful, but now all of the leaves have fallen from the trees thanks to the windy days we've had this weekend. We had a little rain too. All in all it's been a really great long weekend. We hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving with family and friends.
