Geese

I've been hearing geese.

Lots of them.

They are gleaning each evening in the 

field across the street.  

They are amazing to watch as they come

a bit closer to us each day. 
Very methodical as they started at the 

top of the hill 

and have now eaten about

halfway down .....

can't wait to see if they are back today.

The corn was cut just over a week ago

and I guess even today's technology isn't

pristine.  So the geese are happy!

I should walk down to the local pond

and see if they are hanging out there too.

It is so nice to have them visit but in areas

where they live it is pretty nasty to walk...

if you know what I mean.

Oh!  And I am hoping to get some 

sweet swan photos today.

I found a pond that I can 

get to where they are living.

Yay!!

Who doesn't enjoy a crisp

Fall evening....

wait, Georgia, don't answer

that.  Summer will be back before we know it!

The smoke bush.

Strutting its smokey "flower".

 Nothing came of these clouds

but they tried their best to 

look ominous.

Such pretty colors

in the Autumn sky.

If you look carefully

you'll see the geese headed out 

to their next destination.

Life.is.good.

Please don't forget to promote the Purple Dress Project 

Fundraiser to fight Crohn's Disease!

Thanks so much to Buttercup (Counts Her Blessings) for writing a post

and to those who promoted it on Facebook!!

We've sold two candles so far.

I know this will go up as more people 

learn about it and as we get closer to Christmas.

What a wonderful gift for that person who

appreciates good causes.

They get a sweet, sweet candle as well 

as the satisfaction that money

has been given in their name as well.

One more thing....

My friend, Susanna and a friend are 

holding an online auction for another family adopting

from Eastern Europe.

You can find the auction at

this blog, Hidden Treasures, and there you can 

find a $75 gift certificate 

to my Etsy Shop.  

Everything starts at $5.

Hope you'll pop by and take a peek.

So many good causes...

limited funds.

But, if everyone does a little bit

it adds up to greatness.

Have a great day!!
