Sadly They Go Away

Today it will snow.
We will have a fire, but inside.
Goodbye flowers until next year.

Neighborhood wine tasting porch

This home belongs to some friends of mine. It use to be a hat factory. This is a great meeting of the minds kind of porch.

Grandaughter #4 and Jimmy Buffet

Life was just a tire swing.
"Jambalaya" was the only song I could sing.
Blackberry picken'
eaten fried chicken,
and I never knew a thing about pain.
Life was just a tire swing.

Holy Pickles

This is a bowl of Rosemary I grew in my herb container garden. I didn't do the pickles, but the dill I donated to the couple that did. This was their thank you to me. Can you believe how beautiful it is? I'm saving it for Thanksgiving. The kids will go through this in a day.

Hillbilly Supper

It's been a fantastic fall. This is normal. Last year we had rain and snow early. Too early. These photos are from last week on the deck. We started a fire, and had a real simple meal. BBQ baby weiners. Famous Dave's spicey pickles, yum! Plus, horseradish cheddar cheese from Vermont. There's nothing like a fire and snacks.

Webs and Rain

It has been raining so much for such a hot summer. One evening it was really hitting the house. We opened the back door to check it out, and saw this staring at us. BTW, the next day part of the web was connected to the mirror of my truck that was parked way out in the yard. I busted it when I drove away.
