These last beautiful warmish days before our long cold winter make me appreciate the simple things even more. Like the last few odds and ends from the garden displayed in a tiny vase.
Our sleepy cat, dreaming blissfully on the one and only pillow she knows she's not supposed to be on.
Two surprise late-bloomers sunning themselves on the trellis.
A few relaxing moments enjoying a favorite book outside. And appreciating the beauty of a robin's nest here,
and here. Loving the bright colors of the crisp leaves and seed pods from a maple tree.
Treasuring the words of the wise ones who came before us,
and trying to notice the details of the many things I rarely took the time to notice before.
I hope you have some time to notice and appreciate the simple things all around you this week. I've left the images larger, so you can click on them to see more detail.

Beautiful images and even though I am ready for the seasons to change, it won't be long before I'm wishing it were warm again.
Thanks for the reminder. It's good to stop and notice and appreciate the little details in our lives - it's all those little things that make our lives so wonderful.
Thank You for the simple yet poignant reminder to breathe in the inherant beauty all around us Angela!

This time of year is bittersweet, isn't it? Those few last remnants of summer... Thanks for sharing yours.
Greetings,
May your cat like the pillow she is not to be on because of the motive embroidered upon it, as I see it is a nice Koi.
Wishing you a wonderful day,
Egmont
