Early Autumn Days

These first few days of Autumn, a little decorating, a little gardening, a little relaxing 

Nights are drawing in fast, dark before the clock strikes seven now.
Our days are still seasonally warm in these southern United States, giving the opportunity to finish those end of summer chores, before Old Man Winter sets in.
Leaves are beginning to gather, hummingbirds are making their way deeper South, the rhythm of life is noticeably slowing.
The smell of wood-smoke fills the night air.

Your home is in such a beautiful secluded spot. Deer walking through and the leaves all around starting to put on quite a show. One does feel like its time to hibernate.

Jo, I loved all the pictures. I miss my country sunsets...just have no horizon sunsets here in town. Boring!! The deer looks almost fake it is so pretty. Blessings to you, keep enjoy the nice days. xoxo,Susie

How wonderfully your property evokes the mellowness of the season... I just regret the ebbing of light that it brings, although hibernation has its indoor rewards, as well.
