Why does it feel so good, so right, to see my child running in an open soggy field chasing small animals? This may have been my most favorite day this season. Note to self: visit open fields more often.

Puddle Stomping and Chicken Chasing
Why does it feel so good, so right, to see my child running in an open soggy field chasing small animals? This may have been my most favorite day this season. Note to self: visit open fields more often.
A Real Pumpkin Patch
It was a misty October morning when some friends took us to get pumpkins. We jumped on the tractor bus and rode to this sprawling muddy field. And then it dawned on me; I had never been to a real pumpkin patch where you actually pulled the pumpkin off the vine, tendrils and all. I was used to perfectly spaced, dry stemmed pumpkins sitting in a hay field. This field was alive with baby frogs, slugs, and cord vines that kept tripping Sekani as he looked for his plump squash. "I want a white one."
