Last of September

September is flying right on by!

I love this picture below, from my John Sloane country calendar.

Headed to church, the last Sunday before Labor Day.

That's my peacock dress, Fun to wear!

One last day to wear white summer shoes, carry white pocketbooks, and white pants. Yes, I still do the old fashioned southern lady traditions. LOL.

The September skies have been brilliant BLUE

And the stores now have buckets and bins of these pretty Fall things:

the sweet little hummingbirds will soon be flying far far away, on their long journey. I love watching them all summer, and will sure miss them. I've been making extra nectar for them, and they are slurping it down so quickly I can barely keep up! They are preparing for a long flight.

The butterflies are soaring and swooping all over, there are so many different kinds, and I have no idea what most of them are.

Got out our Fall decor and got busy decorating fireplace mantels.

Hope everybody's September has been great, Fall is nearly upon us and I am so ready for Sweater Weather! How 'bout you?

Love these photos, and you look lovely in your beautiful peacock dress!! Love the hummers and butterflies. That one is a Gulf Fritillary, I think. September is a good month for butterflies. I love your fall decor. I know you must be enjoying decorating your new home. No sweaters here yet, but little by little the temps are going down a bit each day. Hooray for Fall! My favorite season, and Sept. is my favorite month since I was born this month! LOL. Have a wonderful week.

You look so cute in that peacock dress. Do you ever just want to bust out of the mold and do something crazy like wearing white in January? I am just rebellious enough but for some reason I haven't done it yet. Maybe all we gals oughta try it. hehe

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........................
