Here is a picture of a peacock (there was a white one behind this one) that was wandering the grounds and garden at Schell's Brewery in New Ulm. We will be going to New Ulm in November and will probably stop at the brewery again. Fun time!
I just watched the Wolves beat Detroit tonight and I must say they looked pretty good....lots of 3 point shots. It will be tough without Kevin Love and Al Jefferson playing for awhile but the young guys love to play and it's fun watching them.
I hear that the Twin Cities is supposed to get some snow and rain tomorrow...for once, we won't be getting any. That's just fine with me. :-) You should see the yard...it's just covered with wet leaves. Will have to let them dry out and then blow them all into the grove.
We had a fire going today after the chimney sweep cleaned it out....man, it still irks me what he charged to do it. Why do I feel that he cleaned my clock??? That was a saying that Dad used to say....I guess I should look that one up too cause I'm not sure about the origin or meaning of that one. Jonathon Lighter’s Historical Dictionary of American Slang lists To Clean from 1819 in the sense of vanquishing or drubbing. The slang use of clock to mean face may also be from the nineteenth century.
