This is not the usual news from the Mink Creek rural column, because the column that was submitted did not make print this week. What you are going to get is a little shifting around because some of what was submitted still should be in the printed version. Now you get my meanderings.
Mink Creek survived another LOTOJA bicycle race, that is Logan to Jackson. The racers going through our village have improved so much over the years. A number of bikers have been practicing on Highway 36 prior to the Big Day when they come in all sizes of groups: a bunch, just a few, one or two, all working to ascend the canyon road to the best of their ability. It isn't an easy climb up to Copenhagen Basin and then down the other side of the canyon to Ovid, Montpelier and on into Wyoming to Jackson.
Jacket weather is here, especially for night activities. No frozen gardens as of yet, but peaches and pears are high on the harvest and preservation tasks. We are still hoping to stretch out the reasonable weather so that our tomatoes can keep producing and the winter squash and pumpkins need more time. The local deer are well aware of our apple orchards and are quite adept at picking their own choice from the trees.
