I hope your weekend is going well ~ it
is a cold and windy one here .
It is the kind of day that makes me want to
sit by the fireside with a cup of tea.
The garden has changed again since I took
these photos a few days ago. The wind has
sent a lot of leaves flying and snow it will be the
white stuff flying... we actually had a few flurries today.
It is time to put the garden to bed and
we have been doing that this past week.
I will be planting more bulbs this coming
week and many of the statues and garden benches
will go into the barn for the winter.
Faded glory ~ a few roses hanging on in spite
of the cold.

A small garden bouquet on
vintage scales.
Playing in pic monkey here.
And now it is time for a second cup of tea ~
I am thankful for a husband who went out
on a nasty day and gathered wood for the fire!
Our wood pellet stove and furnace picked
this cold day to go on the blink!
Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Carolyn

A big hug from Brazil!

I even enjoyed reading Edna's comments above. Keep warm inside! We have a wood burning stove insert in the fireplace and love that feeling (but not the dust of course). Your garden is still quite green - for now!
ReplyDeleteAutumn has arrived here too Carolyn. It is always a pleasure to visit your blog.
ReplyDeleteStay warm and cozy sweet friend.

Dear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteWe have been doing exactly the same thing this weekend! Temperatures are dropping in The Netherlands too and it was high time to put the garden to bed. Hope the weather will stay beautiful for a little while longer, so that you can plant your bulbs.
