fall and church supper

 How is Fall coming along in your neck of the woods?

I love to walk around. Here I am staring at the forest! LOL

Pretty many flowers blooming for us. I think these are Snapdragons?

Friendly little green creature says "hi"!

And our mandevilla still is blooming

Red geraniums still blooming too. And (not pictured) but our yellow begonia is crazy with big pretty blooms. I guess the last of the season.

Church suppers are always fun! This was our annual Soup Supper.

There were delicious soups and cornbreads! I went back for seconds. 

Prettily decorated tables and look at all those desserts dished up and waiting!

Brownies and what we in the South call "Nanner Pudding". LOL

Got a stack of old paperback novels from the 1980s, by Helen Van Slyke. Most take place in the 1930s and 1940s eras, up through the 1950s for some. I read them all summer, and am now on about the 4th or 5th one.

Reading any good books now that Fall is here?

Hope your week is going well! And your Fall weather is sunny, cool, and beautiful!

Let's VOTE!!

 Happy Election Day, U.S.A.!!

I was so excited to vote for President this year!

This picture makes me laugh because the way the sunlight was, it looks like I have pink or orange in my hair. LOL (I don't)

I bought this fun shawl with fringe last Fall, never got around to wearing it much, so THIS FALL, I hope to do so! LOL If it would just COOL DOWN!!

I've been collecting tiny things the past year, it's fun!:

tiny yogurt, ice cream, and a tiny milk carton, pitcher, and glasses.

That's a quarter to compare the size

tiny tea mugs with tea bags

even a tiny crock pot and ice-box!

thats not dirt or dust you see on this old old kitchen fireplace mantel......it's tiny paint splatters someone did, probably a long time ago...
we may paint over it someday, or maybe not, LOL.

lemonades with lemons and even straws

I love collecting these tiny things!
Please tell me what y'all collect?

Hope everyone got out to VOTE!!

A Fall country walk

 Farewell, October!

You were so nice, but it's time to welcome November and the Thanksgiving season.

Got into my closet and found some of my Fall clothes. I've had this old old vest for nearly 20 years, maybe longer! It's sure held up very well.

Headed out for a Fall walk, hope you'll come along!

As twilight falls, our moonflowers bloom out. I think they are so pretty!

We also have a last minute big bloom of lilies, I guess they think it's summer, LOL. These were planted here many decades ago, we were told.

my last marigold of the Summer

Hello from the noisy guineas! They are fun birds!

This is Eagle, one of my beautiful hens.

We have a whole field of these pretty yellow flowers, I have no idea what they are and they weren't here last year, but a friend told us they are wildflowers. They have neat round leaves.

my Fall pin:

I wear it most every day

Tiny white fairy flowers, so delicate and pretty.

Our begonias are still blooming and going strong.

Sure loved seeing the big Supermoon last week, I think it was the last Supermoon of this year?

I think it was the Hunter's Moon as well as the Harvest Moon.

The hunters are definitely out here, it's deer season!

I've been busy putting my Summer clothes away and getting out my Winter things. Got all my winter shawls and hats out a few days ago.

Very soon I'll be getting to wear my favorite flannel shirts, I love those so much!

How is your week coming along?

"Listen!, the wind is rising 

and the air is wet with leaves.

We have had our Summer evenings...

now it's time for October Eves..."
