Spooky or Not?



For some reason, this winter felt so long and cold. I am dying for sunrays and flower blooms, garden projects, birds chirping, and even wasps flying around. The robins have come back, so to me this means that Spring is here. I see more of them arriving in large numbers every day. Robins are one of my favorite birds, along with owls, and sandpipers, and of course my beloved crows. We will be working on cleaning up the garden to receive Spring, now that we have finished the tedious work of cleaning up all the fallen trees that the last storm left us. In the meantime, I will share a few pictures as a farewell to Winter.








Goodbye Winter.
Winter might seem gloomy at times, but there is plenty of cuteness outdoors for sure.









And of course, the Forsythia that always blooms during Winter.

Hope you enjoy the pics.


There is a crisp in the air, the birds are leaving, squirrels are starting to look busier, and leaves are changing. All of this speaks, Welcome Autumn! Inspired by all of this, I decided to welcome the season in a simple way.







The pine trees are starting to give their presents, and I collected a wheelbarrow of these. I decided to spread the pinecones all over the front garden. Another bunch fell after that, possibly one or two more wheelbarrows full. We will put them to good use. Unfortunately, this year deer ate many plants, but I love to see them around, especially, the baby deer jumping and chasing crows. The crows are not afraid, they seem to play as well. A lovely sight.


Hope you enjoyed the photos, and that it inspired you to welcome the season as well.
“Then I will send rain on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains, so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and olive oil.” Deuteronomy 11:14
Love and Light
Blue moon
of dreams that will come,
of silvery fate,
of heavenly dust.

The blue moon that we have been enjoying over the past couple of days has been magnificent. Of course, I had to write her a poem. Here are a few pictures from my little corner of the world.




Hope you enjoy looking at Lady Moon.
Love and Light.
It is the season to look up, down, and all around. No matter where we look, there is something to be seen. From meteor showers to leaves on the ground, critters looking for shelter, or the bright moon, to planets that look like bright stars; all of it is beautiful. There is also the unusual, the unexpected, like a spring flower coming up in the garden in the cold weather, or the late red rose that doesn’t wither after a frost. All of it, although simple, is wondrous.




Nature is ready to take a rest, but it is still whispering its wonders, and displaying its magic.
This is mostly a fun post, and one that lovers of classic cars might enjoy. Chatham’s August Car Cruise-In took place this past Saturday; an event that our community enjoys very much. Car enthusiasts and lovers come from many areas to enjoy this show. It takes place monthly during the summer. Main street is closed at some points, and people can enjoy an afternoon and early evening looking at these beauties as well as enjoy some delicious food from vendors. My husband, being a mechanic, was in heaven, and I as well; as a child I opted to play with cars over dolls. I took tons of photos; however, I will share a few of my favorites, but because I could not download them from my phone for some reason, I will be posting a picture from a picture, hence why these might not be as clear. I hope that you, fellow car lovers, enjoy these. Cars as the eye can see …
























Engine Roar





It was very hard to pick a favorite among all these gorgeous cars, but one stood out.

And if I had to choose a favorite engine as well, it is this one.

Hope that you enjoyed this post and photos.
