Apple Charlie's

Signs of Autumn

 I bet that I can sit for hours on this porch

Happy Accidents

 This Silver Lace Vine grew all over my post that I hang bird feeders on. Wow, it is spectacular right now. Hardly any flowers on the fence but profuse at this end.

Another happy accident.....Solidago growing up through a Hosta that is growing in a pot. I have a huge Solidago growing in the back as well.  Beautiful this time of year when hardly anything else is blooming.

Bluebird on my Shoulder......

I had a wonderful trip to Lower Huron Metropark and Apple Charlie's this afternoon. Saw a huge flock of Bluebirds as well as a flock of Turkey Vulchers. Sun was shining and there was a cool October breeze. I've been worried because the first few days of the month have been rainy. Just a few leaves turning and I expect it will be a few weeks for full color. I want to get out to Kensington soon as well....It's just the drive is so horrendous.
Sending out Bluebirds to all that need some luck and good wishes.

Chester, England

 It's hard to believe that it has been 11 years since my last trip abroad. This is Chester, England which is close to the Welsh border. I just remember the rain!
