We are back to our normal routine but it seems unreal that just one week ago we were in the middle of a grand celebration - our daughter's wedding. I say this often and I will say it again - time is flying right in front of our eyes. I am pretty much caught up with my rest. I was in bed at 9:30 p.m. almost every night this past week.
The smell of Fall is in the air and it's making me very happy. If you're a follower of this blog you know this is my favorite season.
Yesterday I canned 10 pints of tomatoes from our garden. This year I added herbs (also from our garden) to the mix.

Saturday I made our mustard pickles. From past experiences this is the only kind we eat all winter so I only made this kind for this year.

We've been having amazing weather lately. Yesterday we went for a walk on the beach...


... then we went to a pocket-wilderness deep in the woods. A fine day it was.




Puss and I check to see if we have an email from Ginette and André from Italy - they write about every second day.

Hi Joyceann - I love going for hikes. Me and Nature go well together. One more week in Italy and the couple will be home but I will only see them in person in about a month. They live 5 hours away.
Oh I like the new banner photo. Where is that?
I LOVE your new banner. I love that place and think of it often.
Kim - I took this picture last Fall with my niece Colleen (comment after yours). It's at Birchdale Lake Nature Retreat http://birchdalelake.com/ This is where we have our annual yoga and nature retreat every August. It is deep in the wilderness (not even cell phone access, love it)on a prestine, undisturbed lake. It is pure heaven... for me anyways.
