Here in Minnesota we all know what's coming.
We'll be exchanging the delicate smells of the beach
and hot sand between our toes for
winter gear and clattering teeth soon enough.
So I'm reveling in the last bits of autumn lingering about.
Imagine that, blossoms abound where we put up our colored lights, so Santa can find his way.
"Now the true value of time;
snatch, seize and enjoy
every moment of it.
Yes, you're witnessing my garden hose, for the last remaining plants.
No idleness no laziness, no procrastination
never put off till tomorrow what you can do today."
Phillip Stanhope
Hello there wee little pumpkin brought to life by wee little munchkins and their colored markers.
Ah yes, we cut down a tree growing where it ought not be growing, sadly but necessary. So like every good tree lover, we don't just hug our fallen trees, we make things out of them.
Hubby made me a chair!
Misty looking for that darn squirrel that she ran off to the trees! Where did you go nutty critter?
Enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by to make my day even brighter.

What a treat to hang onto the warmer weather just a tad longer. Love that chair your husband made for you!
Hello, it is nice you still have blossoms there. I like the cute chair and pumpkin. I wish I could borrow your Misty to chase my squirrels away. It is mild here lately, I hope it sticks around. Happy Thursday, enjoy your weekend!
Soon, you'll be showing those ugly snow fences :)
ooooh you still have pretty blooms, i am a tad jealous!! if your hubby builds me a chair, we can sit together and have tea!!!!
We thankfully do not get the really bad winters like you, but the flowers are gone already here.
Enjoyed all your photos and the chair hubby made you so sweet.
Lovely series, and I love your chair!
Warm memories and lovely photos will help herald in winter & then there will be more to make & enjoy!

Your last moments of fall seen through your fence were delightful. - I know what you mean about (what's coming)...I so look forward to Spring though.
I have really enjoyed this...I don't know where to start. Such a cute pumpkin! And I love fences with flowers, and your chair is just plain awesome.
Great fences - and I love that chair.
I'm loving the warm weather we are having too! It will be winter soon enough.
time to bring out the winter duds. :) like your sweet scenes.
you savor life so richly that we taste the sweet!

Love your chair and they are amazingly comfortable too. Another nice thing is they don't blow over in the wind either!
It's a gloriously sunny, windy day here -- pretty nippy -- and I suspect that within 48 hours, if the weatherguys are right -- we'll have 4-6" of snow. So I really understand your reveling in the last lovely days of autumn which you have captured so beautifully!
Dearest Karen; Wonderful post with pictures varieties of LOVELY and CUTE photographs♡♡♡ I showed the wooden chair to my D.I.Y. lover husband and he really loved it; saying from where your husband brought the wood p;-)
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend, xoxo Miyako*
The last colors before the winter starts.
