My favorite season is almost over, and we are headed quickly toward my favorite holiday. I try so hard not to skip Thanksgiving. I read somewhere yesterday that someone thinks this time of year should be called "Christgiving." A blend of Christmas and Thanksgiving!
Like my front walk way....
Water frozen in the bird bath...
My burning bush...
Frozen leaves in the grass...
This is a tulip tree, I loved it's silhouette this morning...
The willows are barren...
A few maple leaves still hanging on.
And these pretty leaves on the bush...
I am off today for groceries...Emily is going with me. We haven't had much time together this summer and fall as she was working at the maze and then at a local theater. This on top of doing school work for her senior year. She is a busy girl. I adore her. So we are going out to day and will have some fun while doing our chores!
Lindsay will be holding down the fort here - and guiding the little folk in their schoolwork. I think their is a nature walk in the works and a study of leaves.
I have so much work to do outside. I have plants to cut back and prep for winter, where did the autumn go? We are enjoying glorious weather that is supposed to last through the weekend. Perhaps I will get the gardens prepped tomorrow.
Enjoy your day!

I do hope that you and Emily have a marvelous time together!
Autumn is almost over. =(
But winter holds a beauty all its own.
Saw your comment on Coffee, Tea, Books and Me about the authors and stopped by your blog for a short visit.
You have really lovely photos!
About having comment moderation: I've only been blogging for shortly over one year, but disagreeable comments are something that I haven't had to deal with yet - Thank the Lord! When I see them - rarely - left on someone's blog I always think how sad. It's like going to someone's house and insulting them.
There have been plenty of blogs that I've visited and didn't agree with or that I found distasteful. I simply leave and don't go back. Only twice (that I remember) have I left comments that disagreed with the author. It was after an election and their post was unexpected because it was a homemaking blog not a political one. Authors are entitled to say whatever they like on their blogs and maybe I shouldn't have (even politely) disagreed. Since the shoe is on the other foot and now I'm a blogger myself, I see how much it can be disturbing to get contrary comments.
