A PERFECT AUTUMN DAY

"I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as Autumn sunshine by staying in the house.
So I spend almost all daylight hours in the open air.~Nathanial Hawthorne." Perfect words for a perfect day. Fall Asters remain in bloom in the perennial bed.
A touch of Fall color can now be seen in the treeline along our dirt driveway. The lamp post is now decorated for Fall. I just love my lantern, it was a birthday gift from my parents. Thank you Mom and Dad, it blends in nicely here at Dog Trot Farm. Mums are in full bloom....I ask you how can anyone not love Mums?
Mrs. Scarecrow is now in place, wardrobe courtesy of Goodwill.I do hope your Saturday was as lovely as mine. These are the days we savor, attempting to get all our Fall chores completed before the cold weather sets in...boy does time fly....I do believe my Grandmother was correct when she said "the older you get the faster time goes" Amen to that....
