Artistic raking

One really MUST

have fun while raking leaves, right?

I did feel kind of nerdy

when I took a photo of it, though.

Kayak Jax

 One fine

(but slightly chilly)

morning, five women headed out

on a fall kayaking adventure.

 After a few close encounters with

lots-o-knots

slippery gravel

mud

excess layers

fall colors

kingfishers

cool water splashes

flying goldfish

sandhill cranes

and

dead deer

 the trip came to an end.

Kayak Jax was a fine planner once again.

I vote her hired!

Orchid enjoyment

The newest addition to the collection.

And its even orchid-hued.

Yardening

If you look closely,

you'll be able to tell that this photo was taken

awhile ago.

Believe it or not, though,

it was just one month ago...

that the trees were this leafy.

And green.

 

 

The photo was taken to show how much

greenery came off the

flower (my dad called it a bush!) on the left.

It WAS as big as the one on the right.

And FLUFFY!

Check out how full the wheelbarrow is.

Ah well, the outdoors entertains me well.

Yarn chandelier in situ

Yes!

One Pinterest project finished

and installed.

May the Longtime Sun

For those of you who don't already know,

I'm in the midst of a class

to be a Certified Yoga Teacher.

 

We had a nice ending to class last time I was there...

a song.

 

I liked it enough I asked for the lyrics.

Here they are:

 

May the longtime sun shine upon you

All love surround you

May the pure, pure light that's within you

Guide your way home.

 

If you'd like a little sample from the crooner herself,

Its looking much more pleasant!
