Hi everyone...back with more bits & bobs...
These pics are from the last few weeks...
Hope you are all well...and...enjoying this glorious weather!!
We are off to the cottage in the morning...
Kids are all coming out on Saturday...the boys will help my boyfriend put up the sunporch winter shutters...
Usually once that is done...closing is not far behind...
We draw our water from the lake...so as long as the temps are high, we are good!
Lake Erie is still very warm...way above seasonal...so it keeps the cottage warm too!!
We haven't even done any raking down there yet!! Boyfriend just runs over the leaves with the lawnmower, and mulches them up...I sweep certain areas...like the beach deck above...but still pretty green when we were down there on Tuesday of this week...
My entire yard...back and front...here at home...is YELLOW!!!
I did get a few pics this afternoon...will share them soon...okay Laurie??? tee hee hee
It is just lovely to look out, and see all that YELLOW!!!
OK..that is it for me...gonna get back to my crochet...finished a scarf for boyfriend...very snappy!!
Have a great weekend my friends...
Cheers! :o)

Lol!! Can't wait to see your yellow leaves! All your photos are lovely, but in particular the one of Miss V with blue boots. How did you do that? Tell it!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Glad you noticed!
DeleteI use Pic Monkey....a free photo editing site...this is where I put my initials on as well...
Look it up...I love it!
such beautiful Fall photos, I love that warty pumpkin!!!
ReplyDeleteYes...Miss V brought that over, and she painted it!
DeleteI have moved it to the back yard....Red will eat it!
She is so cute and you take dear pics of her!
ReplyDeleteFall is just the best! You captured it beautifully! Love the leaves on the dock, too!
ReplyDeleteOl' Red will eat well this winter with those pumpkins! Haven't seen him in a while...is he still around?
Oh yes....still around....eating all the berries on my cedars...making a real mess!
DeleteBeautiful shots of your week! Love the B&W and see from above comment you do this on picmonkey. I use that site too, and will have to search out this effect. My son's camera will do this automatically. It's hard to know what to pack away for winter and what to leave out at the moment. I put away my patio chairs except for one because it's still warm enough to sit out in the backyard this week. Enjoy your time at the cottage with the whole gang!!

For sure Wendy....lovely sunny days....but, I think the cold is not far away!
DeleteBeautiful pictures, Linda. I might look into picmonkey. I was playing around with making collages. Your meals always looks so wonderful. Do you usually put effort into presentation? I spend a fair amount of time eating food out of plastic containers! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn!
DeleteLove pic monkey....you can make collages there too! I do my headers there....
Nope...no effort...just don't always remember to take pictures! What you see is what you get!
Gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks Angie...
DeleteHappy weekend for you as well . . .
ReplyDeleteLove your "bits and bobs" . . .
Send some of that YELLOW our way . . .
Would love it!
I love the yellow! Perhaps even more than the red...
Deletegetting so creative with your pictures. very COOL!
ReplyDeleteand
thank God!!! your toes are back to normal!!! LOLOL xo♥
have a fabulous weekend dearest cc girl. i know you will!
Thanks Tammy...I hope all goes well with the shutters!
DeleteWill love having the kids out for one last day this year...
Miss V will have a ball!!
Love your pictures! We still have trees that are covered with leaves, but the sassafras trees are pretty much bare. Seems like they fall later in the season every year. I noticed this morning how golden the maple and weeping birch trees are. My very favorite time of year.

AS long as the warmer temps hold out...I am happy!
DeleteOh those Ontario barns get me every time - they are so attractive! love your flowers and the lake too. I would love a yellow yard - alas ours is now brown because it stopped raining a month ago and the Summer temps have arrived :( We could do with a few heavy storms. Have a great weekend at the cottage.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that Australia was so dry! I always pictured it as very lush...
DeleteI am sure your garden looks lovely...as always!
Wow. It still looks like summer in these photos Linda. You sure are having a nice fall there. It's been so cloudy here every day and just plain dreary. Snow would almost be a nice change. Ha! Have a nice weekend at the cottage. We are actually going to have 4 days of sunshine (and cold) in a row....I think. xx Pam
ReplyDeleteFeels like summer too Pam!
DeleteLovely photos and that header is so cute with Miss V and all the pumpkins . It has been wonderful weather and I am enjoying it to its fullest by being out in it all day walking with my Miggs and puttering about , I love to putter . Yes lake Erie is the warmest lake out of them all and the choppiest to . Thanks for sharing , Have a good weekend at that sweet cottage .
ReplyDeleteGreat weekend weather...bonfires and firepit!!
DeleteLove the orange pumpkin, blue boots, pink pedi and the colourful lunch dish. :) We also have lots of yellow around the house, but it's our hostas winding down. Just preparing for friends coming for dinner. Zucchini/potato soup, baked salmon and more! Enjoy your family and the lovely weather at the cottage.

Wonderful photos - they really tell the story of your week! Fun to see those beady eyes on the little bee :) and the lake scene with the gorgeous sky and all the sea-birds - wow! Sweet little B&W's of Miss V, too. Sad to close up the cottage soon.....enjoy your weekend with the fam. Hugs xo Karen
