Spent a little time this morning “refreshing” my ClayQuilt installation on the corner of my condo building. It has been out there for years… but a few tiles had fallen off. So I replaced them today… and let’s just say, turned out it was a lot more than “a few” missing!!!

Another beautiful Fall day in Chicago!

More Autumn Fun at the orchard! I don’t think I’ve ever seen Indian Corn… or I think we now appropriately call it Ornamental Corn… still on the corn stalk?! Plus a lot of apples no longer on the trees!!!

Also intrigued by the not-quite-pretty pumpkins… whether they’re still on the vine & just not ready yet… or have somehow “gone bad.” Like withering away, drying up, being eaten in the field or just simply rotting away. It’s kinda like “roadkill” in the pumpkin patch!

So much fun at the pumpkin patch on a beautiful Autumn day! So many to choose from… colors, shapes, gourds, warts & stems!!! Celebrating NATIONAL PUMPKIN DAY!

Another beautiful Fall morning with a chilly breeze & splashing waves that caught me off guard. It was calm yesterday… but not today?! Always fun when the waves are splashing & the sun is shining… trying to catch them both at the same time… and trying even harder not to get wet!

It was a “horror-ific” night of musical theater… with one of my favorite shows!!! I mean, ‘tis the season for creepy Skid Row, a dismembered dentist & a starving carnivorous plant!!!

It’s another Floral Friday! And I’m still loving the dahlias currently blooming in my garden. They took their own sweet time growing with no blooms… but the flowers are finally here. And it was worth the wait!!! Now I just hope we don’t get a “hard frost” any time soon so I might be lucky enough to get a few more flowers this year

Hard to believe we’re just one month away!!!
Time to mark your calendars & start making your holiday shopping lists.
Who’s been naughty?… and who’s been nice???
