Golden November.......

Where I live...
This November has been spectacular!!
At home here...and at the cottage...
We have had a lot of days, where the temps were in the teens...{celsius}
The colour on the plants and trees has been amazing...
The weather has been up and down as well...
Horrific winds...plenty of rain...and plenty of warm sunshiny days...
We have been able to get out, and enjoy the lovely Fall weather...
Certainly makes the Winter look far off...
And...
I like that!
Here are a few of my November pictures...
Hope you enjoy them...

                                           Here at Home...

                                                         And at the Cottage...

Beautiful,eh??

I am certain that your colours are just as spectacular...

Hope you have enjoyed them!

                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~
Today started out sunny...but...I am afraid the clouds are rolling in! 
Although...it is fairly warm out..the winds are starting to pick up...
We promised Miss V a bike ride after her nap...

Her and I prepared 2 banana/spice/raspberry loaves before her nap...
They have baked...the aroma is wonderful...
And we will enjoy a slab when she wakes up! 

Her Mommy is under the weather...ear and sinus infection...
She will stay and have dinner with us...
And...then...we will drive her home...

We are having pasta...ceasar salad...and some nice crusty bread, that Miss V and I picked up at the grocery store...before heading to the car wash!!

What a good wee girl she is...enjoys the baking...helping..."I am a good helper,Nana"..."yes you certainly are my dear!!"

We gave Red the apple core from her lunch...
Still waiting for him to come and fetch it...
He was enjoying all of the bird seed!! grrrrr...

Hope you are all having a great day...

Isn't November flying by??
First day of Winter not 'til December 21st...I believe...am I right??

It will soon be time to go and pick up a tree...
And start the Festive Season...
What fun!!

We think this may be our last chance for a sleepover at the cottage...
We are gonna chance it!
Who cares if your head is freezing while in bed....right?
                             
                                   hahahahahahaha! 

Enjoy the rest of your day...

                 Cheers!  :o)

Another Cottage Season Comes To An End........

On Friday past...

We decided...

With this brutal Arctic Air...

That has been making it's way down...

That it was time...

To drain the lines...

Empty and clean the fridge...

And put the old girl to rest...

For another year... 

As we pulled out of the driveway...

And I closed the gate...

I felt a wee bit sad...

But also glad...

That we are so lucky to have this beautiful place...

And to take such great care of her...

And let her begin her annual hibernation... 

And the view from the car...

WAS spectacular...

And...

Kinda looked like SNOW to me...

We will visit almost every week...

Just to make sure...

She is safe...

And sound!!

Will be sharing beautiful wintery shots for sure!!





                Hope you all had a great weekend...

                         Anything exciting???

                    Any Winter decorating???

All plants are in and thriving...frost finally killed my spectacular Dragon Wing Begonia...she was a beauty...♥️

                  It has been lightly snowing all day...

                  Just enough to make things look all white...

                            Snowing where you are???

                                  Enjoy the rest of your Sunday...

                                      Cheers!  :o)

Hop In...We Are Headed To Town.....

took these 2 thru the car window!

A few weeks ago...

On a particularly cloudy day at the cottage...

We headed into Port Colborne to hit a few thrifty stores...

The drive in was beautiful...

We took the long route, that winds along the lakeside...

I had seen these fellows all Summer, and finally got a shot of them...

So friendly...nuzzled right up to me...

And BIG!!!

Their coats were a beautiful Auburn...and they had very soft noses♥️ 

 This Antique store was all decked out for Halloween...

Pretty cool, eh?










Another favorite store..

The Ravens Nest...

Great repurposed and painted furniture in here..

Love the RED!

This leads to the Welland Canal...

Lots of loaded tankers make the trip thru here...

And down to the St Lawrence river...

Or to Lake Huron...

Only pleasure boats here that day... 

           Hope you are all having a great day...

        Weather is kind of the "nothing"...no sun...no wind...no rain...NOTHING!!

                    I like the no wind part!!!

            I would like to welcome a few new followers...hope you enjoy visiting...

                 On the menu tonight...

                         Burgers & Fries...but not just ordinary burgers...oh no!

                              Avacado,chipotle,tomato,lettuce burgers...yummo!

                                           { and mayo of course!}

Enjoy the rest of your day...

           Cheers!   :o)

Today At The Cottage......

As it was a nice sunny day...

We decided to take a drive to the dear old cottage...

In MY new wheels.....

Did some odds and ends...

Took some pictures and left!

It was considerably chillier down there...

About 5 degrees cooler than at home...

And...as you can see....the relentless wind...geesh!!

Hope to still squeeze in an overniter soon...

Before she goes to sleep for the Winter...

Hope you all had a great day...

How is the weather where you live??

I can hear the wind howling outside...

Another storm coming in...

Oh well...what are you gonna do???

Think we'll have some chicken soup I made on the weekend... 

A nice easy night on the cook  ♥️

Speaking of the cook...check out her her new wheels!!

Pretty spiffy, eh??

Enjoy the rest of your day...



Cheers!   :o)
