Day 273...Reading Material

Day 273

While roaming my house on a last minute hunt for a daily photo,

this little stack of books caught my eye...

Fun reading here at the Kane house!

:)

See that crease in the binding of the Katy Trail Guidebook?

It's been read a lot! 

Of course, we have lots of intellectual reading material too...

Day 272...Evolution of Seasons

Day 272

It's really nothing special.

Mostly a photo I pulled to the side of the road for, 

simply to capture a photo for the day...

But as I was sitting at the computer, going through the photos I shot this morning
 I decided I really do kind of like this one.

It's growing on me.

I like the way it shows the bit of barren corn field, plowed,

that sweet taste of Summer now behind us.

I like the brilliant green grass growing along the roadside,

a sign that life will prevail even after the horrible drought this past year.

I like the barren tree that's lost all it's leaves,
 representing the fact that Winter IS coming, whether we like it or not.

And I LOVE the splash of beautiful Fall color,

fading, but nonetheless beautiful.

The road? 

Where will it take you?

Maybe on to Spring!!!

Day 271...Coffee Break

Day 271

Most everyone that knows me knows I'm really a coffee lightweight...

I didn't start drinking it till I was over 40 

and I only like it "doctored up"...:)

Only thing missing from this photo is a bag of Dunkin' Donut's brand coffee.

That's my brand of choice along with my wonderful 

Bunn coffeemaker that my mom got me spoiled with

AND with my Hills Bros Cappuccino which I use for creamer.

(also my moms fault)

God, I love her! :)

Thanks, Momma!

Day 270...Pear Honey

Day 269...A Walk With GiGi (and more!)

Day 269

Took a little walk around the neighborhood with my little man, Jax...

GiGi needed a "fix"

H.A.P.P.Y. (that's me)

 Virginia Creeper climbing the backyard Sycamore tree

 Time for my little toad stools to come inside till next year! 

 I see you inside that house with that camera...here, let me hop up here so you can get a better shot... :)

I sure wish these shots hadn't been through the screen!

Danger, danger...poison ivy is lurking about everywhere and sure looks pretty this time of year.

looks almost like it was planted as an edging...

Day 268...Fall "Shower"

Day 268

What a beautiful day!

I just love being able to say that!

Yesterdays rain is gone and the sun is shining...

♪...sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy...♪

My friend Brandi's wedding shower was today! Fun times with friends...love it!

Day 267...Rainy Day, Saturday

Day 267

What a glorious rainy day!

We still need the rain so desperately.

Thank you, God, for the rain and the beautiful

 Fall season we are having in spite of the Summer drought.
