Hi Friends & Folk!
...thought I'd pop on here to see what you all were up to...
we are having such pretty weather here in VA!!!
I'm hoping that you are enjoying the same cooler temps, sunny skies and dry air ~
We are beginning to really see the end of summer here on the farm...

our Black Walnut grove is dropping it's leaves and nuts

and our mums are HUGE this year!
...The squirrels,

and padding their larders for the coming cold months ahead...

are now nesting on our beds at night, or on the sofa in the den,...

Ah yes...
small changes.
all signs of Goode Things to come!

Still in the mid 90's here and muggy, but I keep watching the local weather for a sign of a 80 something...And the shop looks wonderful!!..I wish i lived closer~~hugs,Jen
Isn't this weather delightful!! I love hearing the night bugs instead of the AC. I'm hooking an oak leaf in the same colors as the one I found on the ground, today. Almost have all my projects finished for Sat.
Can't wait!!
Thank you for sharing your sites with us! I enjoyed the walk through your property and all the subtle changes the new season brings. Nature is just so beautiful. I look forward to fal in all it's glory! The vernal equinox is almost here!

Oh, Suzy is wonderful!!
Lovely site thanks for sharing. It is still hot in the south but, I too have noticed the mornings have a nice cool crisp air that is pleasant with my morning coffee.
