Fall Jungle

Catch Up

I know… I know… I’ve been quiet this week. I am planning catch up from being back in Oklahoma with Junebug for a week. My mother-in-law is making a brave move west – leaving the state she has spent 67 years living in, to be closer to us. It won’t be difficult to think of what we are most thankful for in a few weeks. Having family close makes our simple life that much richer.

As far as the homestead goes, I left when colorful leaves were still on the trees.

Traces of fall were on the patio.

I have returned to remnants of a summer that seem a far memory.

Heaps of squash remind me it’s still fall, although it feels more and more like winter is knocking.

It’s time to hole up inside our little hobbit house to recoup from clearing out 67 years worth of belongings. Restful weekend friends and see you next week.
