Summer is leaving the Berkshires!

Some of the trees are slowly starting to turn and the days and nights are getting
cooler. I'm always sad to see summer go. It was such a short one this year! It seems like we really only had about 4 weeks of it! Well at least my tomatoes are
ripening on the vine and I think we will get some more summer squash before it's over with! If it rains too much the squash doesn't like it, so hopefully the rain
will hold off. We've had too much rain. I really wish we could send it to California where they need it! Shortly I will post photos of some of the trees that are starting to turn. My maple tree in my little backyard is starting to turn also!
It seems like just yesterday the new leaves were coming out! Well the cooler afternoons and evenings are perfect for walking and hiking, that's for sure! I haven't heard the geese flying over yet. They may have already and I just wasn't outside when they did! That's a sure sign when the geese start heading south. I get
a sweet/sad feeling when I see them go and I tell them to say hello to my family down
south!

About Me

My photo
I can be very social, but then a recluse. I like my privacy when I'm working in my flower garden. I like to meditate there with God and the birds and the flowers. I love animals, all God's creatures and I can't stand people that abuse them! I strongly urge anyone that wants a pet to adopt from your local animal shelter. There are many loving animals that are at shelters waiting for a loving home. You can find me most of the time on Flickr where I have a photostream!
