to everything there is a season

and a time to every purpose under heaven:

a time to be born,

a time to die;

a time to plant,

and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

happy september.

adieu august

this month has flown by not to mention summer.

today august ended with the most wonderful amber glow.

as i walk around the farm, rowan, our huskey follows

me intently...talking all the way.

i found this poor guy on the driveway and rescued him.

beatrice is ready for dark to fall so she can patrol the farm.

the zinnias are on their last legs.

sunsets over the farm have been really gorgeous this month.

oakleaf hydrangea always add such beauty at whatever

stage you find them.

farewell august....welcome september.

eves of beauty

we have absolutely had some gorgeous weather these april days and eves.

we spend as much time out of doors as we can.

dh and the boys have been working hard on building the duck coop.

it just needs chicken wire.... or should it be duck wire.

as many of you are aware....we have been having the highest pollen counts

around the country. tennessee is right up there.

it has been a difficult spring for me with my allergies...i feel sick every day.

still i am determined to enjoy...

i adore being outdoors.

whether it be to sit and talk with family/friends.

walking...bird watching...gardening...mowing....planting...

playing with the dogs....ducks....cats....bunnies.

taking photos of any or all the above.

the ducks sure are growing fast.

our beautiful renny out in the field.
he is loving the weather too.

our april sunsets have been spectacular.

the following...three different evenings.

i am so grateful for these beautiful eves of spring.
so full of life.

happy april.
