    Well it is a beautiful, but cold morning here in our little valley, the sun is shining and the sky is blue. The leaves are still falling off the trees but the leaves that are still on the trees are pretty colors. The cats have had their breakfast and they also had a bowl of warm milk, they are now out in the yard and playing in the leaves, I think they are playing hide and seek, they are just like little kids. These cold nights when the cats go to bed, I warm their blankets for them, that was Bob’s idea and they love it, and on these cold m...

    Well it is a beautiful Fall morning here in our little valley, the trees are beautiful but a lot of the leaves have fallen off and are covering the ground, it is a little cool but this morning I went for a short walk. It sure is a quiet and peaceful morning, the neighbor’s cows are grazing in their pasture. The cats finished their breakfast and they went with me this morning for our walk. We usually walk in the late afternoons or early evenings and the cats always go walking with us then, but it was such a beautiful morning, I really enjoyed o...

    Well it is a beautiful Fall morning here in our little valley, the sun is shining and the trees have beautiful colors of orange, yellow and red, they are so pretty and there is a breeze blowing and the leaves are falling. We have not had a bad frost yet, just some light scattered patches of frost. This morning it was 41 degrees and it is too cold to sit out on the porch. The cats did not come up for breakfast until the sun warmed things up a little. The cats like to sleep in on these cold mornings, they have now had their breakfast and are...

    Well it is a beautiful Fall morning here in our little valley. it is cool here on the front porch, I have got my blanket and a good cup of hot coffee. There are some sweet little cats laying out here and they are enjoying the warm sunshine, they have had their breakfast and a bowl of warm milk. Before long I will not be able to sit out here on the front porch because it will be too cold, but I will be inside enjoying the warm fire in the old wood heating stove and I am looking forward to that. Bobby is soon going to clean the stove pipes on...

    Well it is a nice morning here in our little valley. We are getting a little shower of rain and I hear thunder, but I do not think we are supposed to have any storms. On mornings like this I sure like sitting here on the porch swing. The cats do not like thunder, they quickly ate their breakfast and now have gone to their safe places until the rain stops. The cats sure liked that cooler weather that we had recently, on those few nights when it was really cool I put a little blanket over them so they would be warm, no they are not spoiled and if...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley, it is very quiet and there is a little breeze blowing. I have got a little blanket over me while I am sitting out here on the swing and my cup of coffee sure is good. It really feels like Fall, there are a few trees starting to show their Fall colors, it will not be long now until Fall is here. The cats have had their breakfast and are now laying in the warm sunshine. We still have some things to get done outside before the weather turns cold but not as much as we did. I heard the...

    Well it is a very quiet morning here in our little valley. There is a little breeze blowing and it is very comfortable here on the front porch. The cats have had their breakfast and have now left for the day until supper time. The neighbor’s cows are grazing in their pasture. The neighbor has been busy cutting hay, I heard his old John Deere tractor last week, soon he will be stacking those big round bales of hay down near the creek, he is getting ready for a long Winter. I have heard several people say that we will have a bad Winter this t...

    Well it is a nice cool morning here in our little valley. Here on the front porch this morning it is 59 degrees and I am really enjoying my coffee. The cats had a little bowl of warm milk with their breakfast this morning, they have now finished eating their breakfast and they are taking a nap. This nice weather will not last long, by the middle of this week they are calling for it to be around 100 degrees for a few days. But the hot weather will not last long because Fall is just around the corner. It has been a busy week, I canned some...

    Well it is a hot and humid morning here in our little valley and it is warm here on the front porch. The cats came up early and ate and then they left for their cool places. There are not many hummingbirds in the yard, I guess it is just too hot. There are some storms coming in this afternoon and then maybe some cooler weather, maybe we will have an early Fall. We have had some rains, and I think now with the rains and the heat that we have had lately it has really made people’s gardens grow, I want to thank everyone that has brought us f...

    By “E.T. Trevathan, Contributing Writer Well it sure is a quiet morning here in our little valley. It is early in the morning and it is already warm and humid.

    Well it is a warm and humid morning here in our little valley. Here on the front porch there is a little breeze blowing but it is warm. The cats were here to eat early this morning, I think they knew that it was going to be hot later. When it gets hot they go and find a cool place. We keep plenty of fresh water out for them and there is usually a little water in the creek for other animals. There probably are a lot of animals that are tied up and can not get to water or shade. We still have not got enough rain, all we have mostly been getting...

    Well it is a beautiful morning here in our little valley. It is very quiet here on the front porch. The cats are taking a nap, they ate their breakfast and went back to bed. The neighbor’s cows are grazing in their pasture and I just saw a squirrel in a tree here in the front yard. Bob is washing the breakfast dishes and I am having my coffee. I heard an airplane go over and even it seemed to have a lonesome sound, it was not very loud and it sounded far away. I am enjoying every minute of this quiet time, but I know outside of our little v...

The neighbor’s cows are grazing peacefully, the cats have had their breakfast and are now taking a nap. There is not many sounds, even the birds are being quiet, somewhere off in the distance I heard a dog bark. I am sitting here and enjoying my coffee, but I am also thinking that I am so thankful for this peaceful time because I know it is not like this out there in the world. There is so m...

    Well it is a nice cool morning here in our little valley. I really enjoy these quiet mornings here on the front porch, the cats do too, they have had their breakfasts and are now out chasing bugs. The breakfast dishes are washed and the kitchen floor has been swept and mopped, you know who washed the dishes but he did not do the floors, somehow he could not find the broom and mop again, maybe next time if I put them next to the kitchen sink, but it is okay because the kitchen is spotless. The temperature out here on the porch this morning is...

We...

    Well it is a cool and rainy morning here in our little valley, it rain last night and early this morning but it looks like it is clearing up now. We will be glad of this rain later in the summer, it has slowed down some of the gardeners now but this will be good later. The cats came up for breakfast and then went right back to bed. When the sun shine comes back out they will be ready to go for a walk, we have been walking in the mornings and in the late afternoons, and the cats like to go walking with us and they think we should walk at their p...

    Well it is a cloudy and cool morning here in our little valley. We had some more rain last night and everything is wet and the ditches are full and the creek has a lot of water in it. The animals are enjoying this warm weather, yesterday we saw deer crossing our road, we have not seen a lot of deer this year. The cats do not like this wet weather, they ate breakfast and then went back to bed, they did not seem very happy. Some of you have asked about our tom cat that went missing a few months ago, he has not come back home, we still miss him a...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley. It is a little too cool to sit out on the porch this morning, I sure am looking forward to later on this spring when it warms up just a little more, then we will be having lots of warm sunshine with gentle cool breezes and it will be warm enough to sit out on the porch in the mornings. The cats have had their breakfast and have gone back to their warm beds, they do not like cold weather or even cool weather. They like to get out and play in the warm sunshine, but warmer days will soon be...
