I have walked 10,000 steps every day for 37 days. I only meant to do 10,000 steps every day of October. Now that I am in the habit, it seems pretty easy. What a fall. When the weather is perfect, walking is a breeze.
We had a nice day filled with rain and then a skiff of snow that night. The rain made the pine trees bubble. Yes, pine trees bubble. Of course I didn't have my camera. My husband didn't believe me, but then he looked it up. The reason bubbles form is because the trees have accumulated dust and pollen. Then when it rains, this rainwater dissolves the accumulated dust, minerals, and organic compounds, turning them into a natural, soap-like solution called stemflow. This is a picture from the internet. Now you can say you learned something. That is as educational as I'm going to get today.We are starting to see a lot of larger bucks around. I'm not really sure if I will do much hunting as our freezer is full of elk. If I do get one, I think I will grind most of it into burger. Our maple is still holding on to its leaves. They look so pretty in the sun. Have you ever seen a pine tree blow bubbles? Are there many deer where you are?
