Autumn's glowing leaf canopy!

 One of my favourite things to do at this stunning time of year in Maine is to wander along the crinkling, leaf strewn lane beside our house and take pictures of the glowing leaf canopy at a certain time in the late afternoon when the sun is low the leaves are set afire.

 We have been so lucky with the weather these last couple of weeks - the temps are above normal, the skies a singing cerulean blue, the air dry and clear, even warm some days, and the leaves and trees are just beautiful, as ever - full of textile design inspiration!!


What is Autumn/Fall like where you are?

Later today I will have a lovely seasonal recipe for Apple and Pumpkin Upside Down Cake so check back soon - thanks, Patricia

The Blueberry Barren is neither blue nor barren at this time of the year!

 Please enjoy walking around Blueberry Hill with me on this bracing Autumn day in beautiful Maine. There's Blue Hill in the distance and Penobscot Bay in between.
 The colours vary from vivid red through to a lovely muted straw yellow and at this time of the day when I took the pictures...about 4pm in the afternoon.... somehow the colours just seem to glow from within...it is a sight to behold and only for a few days more.

 How many hands and hours went into building this stone wall so many years ago?
 Looking off towards Appleton Ridge



Now for a cup of steaming hot tea and some buttery toast......
