Shucks! Some deer slipped into our yard a day or so ago and ate the pretty calibrachoa and sweet alyssums in my urns. The deer repellent must have lost its punch. 😥Here's how the urns looked about a month ago. I guess it's time now to get some mums.

In early August Glenn and I drove up to Indy to enjoy the Indiana State Fair and attend a concert by Hard Day's Night. This was a celebration of the 60th anniversary of a concert given by The Beatles at the same state fairgrounds back in 1964. Our concert was lots of fun and the band sounded authentic. I believe they followed the same playlist as the original concert. Lots of Boomers grooving to the sounds!

We enjoyed spending this past Saturday in Indy with Natalie chilling at a coffee shop, grabbing calzones for dinner and then watching the Indianapolis Indians, a Triple A club of the Pittsburgh Pirates, at Victory Field. Seger joined us at the ballpark. When we arrived, the Indians and the Louisville Bats were completing a game postponed from the night before because of weather. After the Indians won it in extra innings 7-6(?), that night's game was played. Unfortunately, the Indians seems "played out" as they didn't score a single run in the second game and lost 1-6(?).

A few weeks ago Glenn and I drove to the Driftless region of Wisconsin to spend a weekend with Nathan, who had driven over from Minneapolis. On Saturday we kayaked, hiked and picnicked at Governor Dodge State Park and on Sunday we toured Frank Lloyd Wright's home, Taliesin East. (Sorry, I only have photos from Saturday.)

Our local independent bookstore, Morgenstern's, celebrated its 3rd "birthday" yesterday with a day full of fun. We stopped by yesterday evening to hear the Rocky Branch Bluegrass Band perform.
