I took the photo on the left in October 2010 of the stand at the local peach orchard [right down the street from my house].

Today, there is construction going on. A new pool and housing development. I think the stand is still there-- however not the orchard, which you can see in the background.

The photo reminded me of how gorgeous it is in my area this time of year and to wish you a happy start to the Autumn/Winter Festivities.

What do you get when you go to Costco? It is just my mother and I-- however we still manage to load up on bulk items. Yesterday's haul.

Not shown the Italian Meatballs I wanted to try with a Spaghetti dish. I normally have ground beef mixed with Ragu-- but for some reason we stopped buying ground beef. Yesterday, I put about 3 meatballs [Kirkland's Brand] in the convection oven and they are pretty good-- so they should be really great in a spaghetti sauce.

Washington has been pretty quiet. They provided sales data, and feedback to yesterday's post on Q's Wire.. but that is about all. Am I worried they stopped saying -- today is the day? No. But that just stopped [a day or so ago]. The last was Tuesday of this week. I am not sure why they are quiet. I have been doing some business research-- and there was a little noise as related to that-- but other than that--- nothing.

I have also been using my wii console a bit more lately, exercising...
