Summer

The garden knows...

so does this field of corn.

The lawn has no doubt.

Schindler 15 weeks old

That makes me sure too.

Yes summer is officially here!


Thanks for taking a moment to visit.   Hope you all have a wonderful week.

Not Quite!

The Neighbors

The peak is not quite here but almost.   We had our first killing frost of the season last evening. That should mean the hills will don their finest colors and give us a lovely show in the next few days.










                                                                          In the meantime we are preparing for autumn's glory.  

Otis

         Otis is looking pretty dapper from his long stay in the shed.   We have brought him out so he can enjoy this beautiful season.

    Naturally there are a few veggies needing to be harvested .  These beets will be delicious pickled.  

Couldn't resist picking some of the remaining annuals.   They will soon be gone.














 

Oh and yes we could not forget the fresh apple cider.   Yummy!

I think we are finally ready now.    Hope you are too.



Have a Blessed Week!

While Absent

Look what happened while absent.

 July stumbled into August!

Sunflowers and phlox showed up in the garden...

 beans were put up for winter...

 a  local car show took place...

An old cemetery was discovered.

a bit of tangling went on...

 and a few tomatoes started to ripen.

Most importantly I missed You!    So glad to be back.    Have a blessed day.

Beauty

   Where does one find beauty?

Perhaps a simple countryside view...

an old church steeple that touches the sky...

a single flower...

   two loving companions

or an end to a perfect day.


This is where I found mine.   Hope you will share where you find yours.    Have a blessed night!
