...leaf picture. I did not arrange these. I found them on the way to the mailbox. What a great composition! What a great abstract painting! Colors, textures... It almost makes me forget that #!%*#! sewing machine that ruined my morning! But that's of no account. I put it behind me, I rise above, I look at natures art and am replenished. Yes, I am.

How many of you can get fresh cut lilacs for Halloween! lol Randy cut these from some bushes he's tending for a summer resident. I still ahve roses blooming, too, but have never had lilacs this time of year before. Lovely!

Pop used to tear this stuff off the house, he felt about it like some people feel about ivy, but it's so pretty. It does get a grip on the screens that it probably shouldn't but it's the most brilliant red in the yard this time of year. I guess I should have a try at digging it out and planting it somewhere where it can have it's way. Only I don't know if I could. I've been trying to kill off that old not-very-pretty wisteria ever since we added onto the cabin but it still puts runners out every year. If you look into the background, those little red dots are apples on the Rome Beauty. The ones out of my reach. I thought Himself might take the hint, but I guess I'm going to have to get out a ladder. Oh yes, check out the header! This guy and his mate used to nest in the alder tree, the one in the photo, but that bit rotted away and they left. Now they're back again. I think they've dug a nest in the top of the cottonwood out back. I was happy to see them again!
