Fall is here

Fall has finally arrived to the Lowcountry!

The temperatures have cooled down, and I've had my sweaters out and ready for these nice days.

There are even a few Fall leaves scattered about!

Lots of bright blooms! and pumpkins scattered everywhere, on windowsills and on porches and dressing up steps

The mums have burst into bloom, and the piles of "punkins" are so festive!

Perfect weather to be outside enjoying the fresh air!

.......and perfect weather for lighting an outside fire when the sun goes down! (so we did!)

Hello, Fall.

Good-bye summer, we eagerly await to see you again next year.

I wrote this about "goodnight, Charleston" several years ago for the blog.

Goodnight city, and goodnight Summer!

Great pictures but there was a place where three pictures in a row just made me take a breathe. It was where the purple flowers were with the green and purple plant and then the next one was the gate with the plants on top and then the very next one was looking down this beautiful street. You have a gift for writing:)

Yes the cooler climes are finally here and I have so looked forward to them. I love the leaves falling; that always makes me smile. But then I do not have to rake them, haaaha! TG takes care of that. Love your outfit! Great pom poms! Happy Thanksgiving! xoxo

Tonight's Micromoon--we watched it rise over the Battery tonight, it was red and orange

Skywatchers in Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones will get a view of the full moon tonight (Sept. 13) at 11:32 p.m., 10:32 p.m. and 9:32 p.m., respectively, while East Coasters will see the moon at its fullest at 12:32 a.m. on the 14th. Regardless of time zone, the moon will appear just a bit dimmer than usual (eerie!), because it will be at apogee, or its farthest distance from Earth. That means that the moon will appear about 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than when it is at its closest point to Earth, which is known as perigee. (Livescience.com)

LETS END KILLER WHALE CAPTIVITY!!

Please research the captive killer orcas that the SEAWORLD franchise holds captive. It is animal cruelty at it's worst. Those killer whales need to be FREE, NOT HELD CAPTIVE BY us humans and forced to do 'tricks' for our amusement. (and to make SEAWORLD a lot of money. ) Please go watch BLACKFISH when y'all have time okay? also read "Killer at Seaworld". You will learn so much and I doubt if you ever pay entrance fees to enter SEAWORLD or any of it's affiliate parks again.........because you will learn what the money really goes for........PROFIT. Their profit...........the poor whales gain nothing. But life captivity. Sad lonely lives in bathtub size enclosures where they cant even interact with their own pods and offspring normally. Many of them are so sick and die very painful deaths.The 'breeding' program is a joke. They are not even allowed to procreate in a natural and normal manner. The whales that were caught in the wild were taken from their pods and their mothers in a very cruel and inhumane fashion---it is heartbreaking. It's awful sad. Please research and then let me know what you think, okay? Whales are magnificent creatures, I love them. I tell everybody it's okay to love them and to want to go see them......but please go to areas where you can view them in the wild either from the beaches or cliffs or from boats. Not from cement swimming pools where they are mis-treated, gawked at, and forced to 'perform'. God created them and intended for them to exist in the seas! They really need to remain free........................
