** It's So Good To Be Alive **

Today is one of those amazing, autumn days that just makes me feel alive! Cool and crisp, with sunny, blue skies. Gentle breezes, leaves floating down from tall trees. Vern and I took a long walk; I got re-energized, Vern came home and took a nap! (Sometimes it's the other way around!)


Vern on the daybed in my office/spare bedroom.
He can look right out the window and see what's going on, and nap when he wants, also. 



Happy Fall, y'all! 



"There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October." --  Nathaniel Hawthorne

  1. I can feel how comfy Vern is there! We all need a spot like Vern's. The day started cold here but is warming up to be perfect autumn air.

  7. I love the smell of autumn. My family laughs at me because I will go out of my way to find the crisp leaves piled on the sidewalk or gutter and "shluffle" (my word for it) through them. I like the sound and smells it releases.

  15. I am probably the only person who has a difficult time with fall. My grandmother, my FIL, my cat, my dogs, and now my sweet SIL all died in the fall. But it is a lovely time.
