Welcome to week #10 of Ordinary Photos. Lots of gratitude this week for gorgeous weather. Gratitude that election mailings and commercials are over! Much gratitude that we are staying healthy.
Sad news this week, Covid numbers in Iowa are out of control. No new mandates here but we have decided we are staying home other than Steve’s work and getting necessities! This means no lunch with friends, not seeing our kids, and not seeing the grandbaby.

Voted on Tuesday, no line and was in and out in 9 minutes!!

Was able to get some much needed bike riding in on the trail near our home. Awesome for November in Iowa!

Much needed washing of Windows! So glad I was able to get them all done before winter!!

Decided to make buns for hamburgers instead of running to the grocery store for one item. I make a lot of bread and rolls but this is the first time I made hamburger buns. I just grabbed a recipe off the Internet. Picked the wrong one!!! They were tasteless and definitely not what I hoped! Worked ok for burgers though as we added condiments, blue cheese and bacon!!


A walk down a country road always makes for a great day! Just a few blocks from our house and I see this windmill everyday.

Missing Cora but I do receive lots of photos!

Relaxing end of the week. A fire and glass of wine!
last two pictures say it all…
Yes they do!! Might have a redo of the last photo tonight!! Lol
that would be a great way to wrap up the weekend!
Sorry the buns didn’t taste good. They looked great! As did that sweet child. Thanks for sharing your life in Iowa which sounds a whole lot like our life in TN!! We’re in and staying in.
I bet Iowa and Tennessee have a lot of similarities. Lots of rural areas in both! I can’t wait to try making buns again and redeem myself!! Have a good week!!
Extraordinary photos as usual. Love the shot of baby C and the fire and wine. Stay well and have a great week. Allan
That you! Might have to finish the wine off tonight!! Too windy for a fire though! Lori
Yes, thank goodness the craziness of the elections are over! Looks like we’ll have a different president with (hopefully) different policies in the next four years to come, and hopefully for the better. That glass of wine at the end looks very tempting, and I just might have to run to the store to get some, too! Have a good start of the week. 🙂
Have a good week too!!
Lovely….Cutie baby pic!
Thanks!! We adore her!! First grandbaby!!
Wow.. Congratulations to all!
