Vintage Esso map

Hasn't it been a strange week?  It certainly has in this country.  We've gone from delicious fall weather to cold and destruction.

Cooler weather on its way and a frog

Finally got most of the houseplants in for the winter.  Still have a couple to go, but our winter indoor garden has begun.

The other day when I let the dog out, this very tiny fellow was clinging to the screen door.  I caught him to bring him inside to get his picture.  He was so cold in my hand, colder than a drop of water and yet his eyes were bright and alive.  He looked at me and it was obvious there was an intelligence, an entity there.  We are such predators mos of the time, we don't think about the validity of the lives around us.
I only had my cell phone and he was very small, so the photo is not very good.

Morning Glory

Sorry about being absent so long.
First there was husband getting a job in another state and all the worry and decisions concerning that.
Then ebay had 5 free listing days.  Good because they took my mind off being on my own.

Now, I'm sort of back to normal.  Whatever that is.

"For flowers have distinct objects in life and are everything they are for the most justifiable of reasons...The means they employ to accomplish these ends are so various and so consummately clever..."

very rare book about a girl living in Canada, inscription dated 1936

"Just where the young spruce trees grew thickest on the top of the hill, Anna paused to get her breath from the sharp climb up on the other side,before she plunged down the slope to the brown house on the bluff above the river."
