Kathryn came over for a few days to help us redo Martin's den. She's an energetic worker and did a great job painting the ceiling, walls, and woodwork. Then she tackled the removal of the old carpet and pad. She saved us many hours of knee crunching, and shoulder pulling work. It looks so nice. Mart chose the colour. Today, we all went on a stroll through Paxton Bush to take in the lovely fall leaves; they are falling fast. The leaves are brilliant in colour, as you can see. I pressed and mailed some leaves to the little girls in California, but the colour does fade a bit.
