Preparations

The end of summer is nigh, we must start preparing for harvest and storing goods for Autumn and Winter.

Oakleigh, little Leaf Elf.

What are Amy Lynn and Rosie doing?

Looks like they are trying to coax a little leaf elf down...I don't think they are having much luck.

They explain their dilemma to Connery and Sandra

Sandra is pretty sure she can coax him down...

Sure enough she does.  

Now who may you be wee fellow?, Sean Connery asks the little leaf elf.

I'm Oakleigh, the little elf replies.

Sandra and Connery invite the little elf to stay with them and offer him something warm to eat.

You are welcome to stay with us, they tell him.  We don't have much yet, but it is a home, and surely is better than sleeping out in the cold at this time of year.

Oakleigh is delighted to be invited to stay.

A little later he can be found making friends with Amy Lynn and her pet rabbit, Carly and Rosie with her pet Guinea pig Twinkle.

Connery checks on the wildlife.

With it having snowed again last night, Connery thought he better go and make sure there weren't any wild animals in trouble.

He found a little fox sheltering under a shrub, after ascertaining that all was well, he let him be and wandered off back inside for a warm drink.
