Due to computer problems here at the Memorial office and a very busy month of October we have not done any blogging for some time. October has always been our favorite month and this one was extra special with lots of our family coming out to visit us. It started off with Caroliene our middle daughter and her husband Travis coming at the end of September when the fall colors were making their first big change.

We had a great morning for a hike up to the top of Patriarch Hill which is the highest point on the church's property. They really appreciated the awesome view of the Rumpled Hills of Vermont just putting on their autumn dress and the attractive farmstead just beyond the top of the hill. There were still a few Blackberries for them to pick and taste. Our hike was an absolutely perfect way to begin their stay.
