week in snapshots


1. winter is impatient, 2. nature goodies, 3. snow canopy, 4. big spider, 5. wisteria covered snow, 6. snow on the pumpkin, 7. jude's idea of a big smile, 8. yellow caterpillar on a maple leaf, 9. snow in october

It's hard to believe that within a week, we've had snow, our first hard frost, and a high of 70F in that order. If you didn't see our snow flower fairy, check her out. Because of the snow I feel so far behind on garden/yard chores, but there is time. We still have kale, mustard, and swiss chard in the garden. But our first hard freeze was this morning. Even though we were below freezing at the end of last week, the snow protected everything. Odd....I figure I may never experience making a snow flower fairy again in my lifetime...so I'm glad we had the opportunity to do it.

This we travel to Providence, RI for a Fine Furniture Show. I plan to have one more post before we go and will return early next week. Hope autumn is still full of glory for you!

  5. My goodness, you certainly weren't kidding about the snow, Elizabeth. Here in southeastern PA, we got away with just a few flakes. I loved the shots of your snow flower fairy!
