October - Festhalle, Kelsey's wedding, Owl-o-ween

We have enjoyed October! The weather has been great. We celebrated Neida's 50th birthday with a weekend in Helen. We attended the Octoberfest celebration at Fest Hall on Friday night and the winery tour on Saturday.

The following weekend, Kelsey and Jason got married. It was beautiful. And once again, the weather was fabulous.

The next Friday was Amanda's last day at Publix. On Saturday, we went to Owl-o-Ween with the Ripleys. On Sunday, Lisa and Ron got married.

Labor Day 2016

Hurricane Matthew blew by on Friday - just to the east of us. We didn't know if we would have damage or not until we arrived on Saturday. NO damage. The patio furniture was blown to one side of the deck and that was all. The hurricane even blew the bugs away! But the Saunders and the Bells decided to stay home and clean up. They had more damage than we did. The Goulds just threw some limbs out of the way and plowed thru. They stopped at Publix in Tallahassee - it was a zoo. Apparently Tallahassee took a hit and power was out - except at this Publix.

Alex and Amanda joined us. Chloe brought a friend named Chloe. After Alex and Amanda left, Eric and Joe came down. We had a great weekend - even though the toilets backed up and Alan had to find his inner plumber.
