The Blackness

 At the end of our block, we spotted a few Black Vultures! They were eating something dead on the road. They have been circling around our area for a few years now. Did you know that their pee kills bacteria? So they do not get sick from standing in critters that have been dead for a long time.



They are actually calm, social, and affectionate!

Kitchen Fall Decorations - Part 1

 So, here is how I decorated our kitchen for fall. I will split it into two parts so you are not overwhelmed with photos.

Kitchen table



Corner cabinet




Beside the sink

September 1st 2026

 As usual, on the first day of the month I am showing my calendar page. I think that this one has pastel colors that are not like fall!! I think it looks more like summer.

Sunday Sunset - The End Of Summer

 This is the last sunset of August. September brings the first day of meteorological fall. Although here, the first week of September will have temps of almost 100! Still, I am decorated and ready for fall!!





One last goodbye to summer nights through the rearview.


“The last sunset of August falls like embers from a fading fire.”

A Daytime Moon

 This evening we happened to see the moon rising. It was not dark yet, and just around sunset. I thought it had the prettiest ring around it! It can be hard to snap the moon behind a blue sky because there is not much contrast.







“A ring around the moon looked like a wreath woven from mist.”

Not A Garage

 Driving past the side of this house, I noticed what looked like a garage with such pretty stained-glass windows.


But upon a closer look, there is a wood divider between both the doors; so a car would not fit. And there looks to be no way to open the doors either. I am mystified. Maybe a storage unit? Any ideas?
