days of October
It’s 11 p.m. There, I am forcing myself to stop work. Now... about the post. What? Has the day passed me by??
And it is such a splendid golden sunny week! I wish I didn't just get to feel the tail end of each day. Still, leaving work, I had a chance to sample that wonderful parched heat of another dry autumn day.
Rosie and I zipped over to the Café, then to the farmette. Across the road, the shadows cover the fields early. And still, on a day like today, who can groan about diminishing light! It was just so beautiful. Even as by evening, I have to wear the biker jacket. There’s a chill as you dip through the valleys. Sun or no sun, I'm definitely tasting autumn air.
Supper? Leftover cabbage soup! We just cannot get enough of it.

Thank you for the glorious series of landscapes! Each is beautiful on its own, but each addition to the series is facinating.
ReplyDeleteFrom the late summer of 1890 through the following spring, the great French Impressionist, Claude Monet, painted over thirty scenes of haystacks in a field. The variety of moods,changing color and light—and Monet's mastery of his medium—is a revelation.
Isn't this gift of extra summer days just the best? I want to enjoy each one - savor it - but alas, I too spent yesterday inside for most of the day.
