A sweet and mellow autumn day, and I am about to take my before-dinner drink outside while I watch for birds and butterflies, and great large honey bees in the collection of Asters that the garden holds close to its bosom these days, - not much else blooming. A few scattered yellow daisies, and the remnants of a tall red rose. Under the trees a circle of autumn crocus and a lone 'dollar plant' shimmers in the sunshine when you bare the seed covering..
I'm off to pour the brandy - I will be back! With pictures.....

October 5th, - just after lunch!
Well, I said I would be back, and here it is, three days later, and hello, hello! October 5th, and a surprise invitation!
A little road trip with youngest son, - what better way to spend a Monday morning!
We set off, - circled the back roads and then headed East to the turn-off, up that old familiar road that Charles and I so often wandered....
A beautiful and mellow time of year, - the leaves donning their autumn colours and the rabbit brush all golden and blooming....
We took lots of pictures, and I share some here.....
