Is not this a true autumn day? Just the still melancholy that I love — that makes life and nature harmonize. The birds are consulting about their migrations, the trees are putting on the hectic or the pallid hues of decay, and begin to strew the ground, that one's very footsteps may not disturb the repose of earth and air, while they give us a scent that is a perfect anodyne to the restless spirit. Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns. ~George Eliot

Garden

I enjoy walking around my garden

looking for bugs, bees or butterflies.

I have added a new "page" for bugs

and critters - check it out. I promise

it's not that scary.
 


This is a wild onion plant - I was going to

pull it out last year but decided to leave

it.  It seems that the bees are crazy for

it!  And not only bees....



And then there's also some pretty 

scary .....

  Spiders!

Walking through the garden is

an adventure for sure.

Lancaster Junction Trail





Flowering Winter Aconite

What a nice surprise to find among the dead wood

A tree fell and this hole is about 3 feet deep and wide
