In and Outside Sunday Morning

I love morning light at any time of year, but especially now.

North Carolina leaves rubbed by my grand-niece.  (The older nieces are pretty grand, too.)

Zinnias from my garden are offering up bouquets like this almost daily now!

Not the best photo, but I like something about the light.

One Who Feeds Us, you should have wiped the sleep from my eyes before you took the photo.

Smitten as I am with Pumpkin's coloring, I sometimes forget how really lovely Darby's coat is.

Like both photos, so I included both.  It IS my blog, after all. 

Sedum Autumn Joy from a cutting given to me by a friend several years ago.

One of several varieties of zinnia.

Basil thriving still! in the shade of tall, leafy zinnias and in companionship with bug-repelling marigolds.

Spinach thriving still! in the shade of rosemary and in companionship with marigolds.

Leaves changing.

Their tail-curls are so different.  Pumpkins always makes me think of a lightening bold, or an Aztec god.

Please ignore dust on the candle stick bases.
