Fall fun

The weather was gorgeous today, and it was our annual family wiener roast and hayride. I'm not sure how many years this event has been happening, but it's been a long time. It is a very unique extended family event, because every individual family is related to somebody, but nobody is related to everybody. We've all been friends for a long time, and everyone feels like family. It started years ago, at (if you can follow this) my mom's brother's wife's (my aunt Jean's) parent's farm. Aunt Jean's parents are both deceased now, but a Grandson, Tim, and his wife have continued the tradition. Tim still uses his Grandpa's original Ford tractor to pull the wagon. Thanks Tim and Dee Dee for hosting this event, and including us "adopted" family members.

Lily wanted to sit on the big tractor

Tim gets these large cable spools at work and they create a dramatic fire!
