Colors of fall.

Some of the prettiest colors are in the fall. Fall colors linger and last unlike the beautiful colors of flowers during the Summer that tend to bloom for a day and wilt. Fall is sturdy and firm holding on till it HAS to be blown away. 




Check out this interesting composition my sweetie put together, he has a thing for beach wood and stones or I should say rocks. But fall is a time they really stand out in the landscape. He picked up these pieces during a stay in Maine, lovely souvenirs and good memories. 




Here’s my favorite color - pumpkin orange!!
This was carved last Wednesday with our grandson, it is a fun activity for an almost 4yr old. 





This photo dose not do these colors justice but you can picture a wonderful sunrise on a fall morning with the fog really heavy all around. 
I used to live on a hill and after the bus picked us up in the morning we came to an intersection that overlooks a section of the Hudson valley, I would imagine that all the fog settled down there was water , it was so dense all you could see were the hills on the far side meeting the fog. A wonderful magical lake! I can see it now in my memory. 

Well maybe this extended warm spell is coming to a close like our 6 mos. in the north.  Time has flown by way to fast at least for me, I have had a wonderful time reconecting with friends from years ago and talking animals, animals and more animals.  
So long for now, I'm going to go find a sweater.

Yup! You guessed it the cat place, where you can drink your drinks, munch your snacks and pet cats the whole time, or if your like me you sit and watch the cats the whole time.  Tori was of course in her glory, petting a smooching cats everywhere.  Each of the cats have a pink or blue ribbon on them identifying them as male or female and with their name so you can look them up on a paper, that is on a table in the room, so you can tell how old they are.  I did find it very interesting watching the different cats interact with each other and us. They have little treats you can buy to entice them to come to you to be petted.  Tori was like this practically the whole time, this is her "happy place," amongst cats. Goodness she can go on and on about the virtues of each cat and she only met them once. This cat below is my kind of cat, wonderful to be seen but not touched. White, I like a white cat with a touch of black. They have "cat walks," u

I love the trailing days of fall, the light is different and the air feels just right. It always amazes me how the sun casts such a different kind of lighting onto the trees and other green thing this time of year almost like a spotlight but not harsh or hot.  I had a wonderful crop of raspberries just enough for a couple handfuls each day they were fun to watch progressing over the summer. At one point I had a scare. Some of the raspberry bushes got some kind of grub egg in them, I forget the name now but it lays an egg somehow that causes the top 3 inches or so to wilt. I googled it and got directions on how the save the plant and I think  I caught it in time. PHEW  I The garden as a whole is wonderful, a wild but productive place.  We have this one pretty maple tree in our backyard but unfortunately it may go next year we need the space to plant some fruit trees. I hate to cut trees but they grow like mad here.  I’ll leave you with my b
