Mother Nature's Little Green Surprise

October 26, 2009

This morning is sunny and very very crisp. (That means quite cool!) We've been getting a nice showing of our Fall colors this past week. This morning on our way home from Tootsie's chemo appointment, I managed to get a few photos. This one is the street leading up to the center of town, only a minute or so from home. Forgive the quality, but this was taken through the windshield. I just hold up the camera with one hand and start clicking away.



















And here's another one, this one on my street on the front lawn of our Town Hall.

















A couple days ago, I noticed that our topsy turvy tomato plant has some new little tomatoes growing in amongst the dead stalk and leaves. One last little burst of life. I could not resist stopping to take a few pictures of this beautiful little plant. Mother Nature just does not give up so easily.























Last night was a rather quiet night at work. This weekend the Mrs. celebrated her 92nd birthday, and it sort of pooped her out. Both days, she had lots of company, not to mention lots of presents to open. Then yesterday, the family all got together across the street in the open field to play kick ball and enjoy a cook out. So needless to say, last night she slept well. I hope her dreams were happy too.

Time is flying by, and it's almost the New Year. (for witches, that's November 1st.) This weekend is Halloween, and if all goes well, my daughter Audrey should be arriving for a visit. It's a shame Snow Raven can't be here too. She was supposed to be making my cake. Oh well, I think I can do without the cake this time. My behind will thank me later.

Yesterday while I was shooting a few pictures, I did manage to get one of Howie watching the Pat's game with Tootsie. I think the other dwarfs went into hiding when they saw me bring out the camera. Chicken!!!!!


I think that's all the news for today. It's time for me to get busy on a little mini kit that I am making for a friend. Tomorrow, I will try to have another freebie for you. Y'all have a beatiful day now.

Hugs, Edna B.
