A feast for the eyes

October 11, 2008 | My Jottings

This little maple in our front yard is trying with all his might to get noticed. I thought I’d reward him for his efforts this morning by posting this picture.

And while I was out there, I took this shot of the the ivy creeping up our chimney. I rip it all down to the ground at the end of autumn, and this is just five months’ growth, from about late April until now.

Does your week include baking, hiking, fall-color drives?  Laundry, errands, naps?  I’ll send a (nice!) gift to the sixth person who posts a comment anywhere on the blog this week.

    My fall includes eating, sleeping and working.

    The picture of the tree is absolutely lovely! Red is my favorite fall color, and fall brings new hope as well as a bit of sorrow.

    Did you know it is rutting season?

    A promise is a promise. You multitude of blog readers missed out, and my daughter Sara just left the sixth comment. Be sure to read all six of her fascinating entries. The nice gift will be mailed to her tomorrow.

    It’s not that uncommon for bloggers to have contests or give a gift or have a drawing once in a while. Be watching for when it happens again. I promise you will like the prizes. 🙂
