Welcome October

As the sun shone through the maples this bright cool autumn morning, I watched to see if I could spot the black squirrel and, hopefully, the grey sibling around their nesting tree. Sure enough, the black one ran out along a limb and thankfully the grey was right behind. They tumbled along, one jumping over the other and headed straight to the feeding area. I was relieved to see them together;  thankful. The friendship was genuine and I know they were comfort and warmth to each other on these cool nights. My morning and this beautiful new month, was off to a good start.

So, I enjoyed one more cup of  the retired-guy's great coffee and headed out for my walk.
I wore a heavy hoodie and still found it very cool. Next time I'll bring gloves.

The route I take is a windy one as you can see in the photo.
It's so pretty here with the gorgeous houses and the old wooden fences.

I passed an older gentleman who tipped his hat and said "good morning". :)

Such a rare gesture these days.  

I came home with a few little gifts from above.

=^..^=

Audrey gave them a good inspection

and then went off in a huff again wondering where the rest of that bird is.

The fence is coming along.

It is perfect weather for these out-door projects. :)

"Welcome October"

I only wish you had 100 days.

hugs, Deb
