Try To Remember

After ten days of cloudy weather.
today the sun is shining.
The light is changing to the wonderful light of Autumn.

The spicebush swallowtail made an appearance 
on the lantana in Musashi's Garden. 

I found a lovely collage on FB that included some of the lyrics to
Try To Remember.

I'm aging myself I'm sure when I say I remember
Harry Belafonte signing this lovely song.

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow.

A little over a year ago this is what it looked like around Twisty Lane.
I send thoughts and prayers to the good folk in North Carolina. 

Wishing YOU well and much joy!

Fair On September First

Fair on September first,
Fair for the month.

September 1, 2017

I certainly hope that is true.

As most of you know,
Hurricane Harvey hit the Texas Gulf Coast causing massive damage.
The rains from Harvey inundated Houston -- my home.

I'm pleased to report that I am fine.
I remained high and dry.

Yikes!

Kids really should not be in the flood water.
Nasty stuff. 
Kids will be kids, I guess.
Stir crazy, too.

Things are getting back to the new normal in my area.
People are going to work.
Grocery stores and restaurants are opening.
Schools will be opening in two weeks.

Friends invited me out to lunch and grocery shopping yesterday.
What a treat!

I'm so very lucky.
So many have lost everything.

If you wish to donate, I recommend donating locally.
The Houston Food Bank is excellent.
Friends For Life is helping pets.
There is link at the top of their page for donations for Hurricane Harvey.

Meanwhile, back at home, Mina keeps me smiling. 
She loves her tunnel!

Wishing YOU well and much joy!
