Cooler temperatures this morning. Not to be any warmer that 55 degrees today. Looks like we are now into the chilly bare part of autumn. Just so it doesn't snow. :):)
Enjoy this wonderful day. XO

Marigolds are pretty but I don't much like their smell. Pretty Maple trees!
ReplyDeleteSylvia, The marigolds can help keep bugs away. I need to put them up around the porch..LOL xoxo,Susie
DeleteWe have similar weather..80's yesterday..50's and rainy today..Marigolds make me sneeze...
ReplyDeleteMissy, I like these little marigolds, great colors. They are strong smelling. I think they help keep bugs away. I need more some days. LOL. xoxo,Susie
Delete50's today and rainy !! Don't know what happened there..Sorry
ReplyDeleteWe started off sunny and now it's gloomy , no rain, but some wind. It really is taking the leaves down. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI always loved growing marigolds. I think I still have a bag of seeds that I saved. Enjoy your day! I hope it's sunny and nice! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteDiane, It's not sunny here but cloudy with wind. I do like these marigolds, they are pretty colors. Fall colors. xoxo,Susie
Deletebeautiful photos, I always liked the fact that Marigolds keep pests away with their smell! I never minded their smell actually, lol,
ReplyDeleteLaurie, I think the marigolds have a woodsy earthy smell. They help keep bugs away. That is a plus. xoxo,Susie
DeleteToday is still summery, but the weekend is supposed to be cold. I've got my gloves ready. Thanks for the prayers for Jackie.
ReplyDeleteHi Buttercup, I keep some little gloves in my car all the time. I like to keep them handy. My sister gave all of us other sisters a wrap around earmuffs . Now that is handy on windy days with a bit of a chill. I think our lovely warm weather is waning. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHi Susie, I didn't have a lot of success with marigolds here or them reseeding. I love Maples-all types, but especially the ones that get vibrant colors in the fall. We've always had at least one Japanese lacy leaf, but they are harder to grow here. I had just gotten a Autumn Blaze maple at our old house, I hated leaving it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, stay warm.
Hugs, Noreen
Noreen, My mother had a dogwood tree, she brought from Alabama to her yard. When Mommy passed away, my sister said she wanted to take it...but she never did, or I would have....but I did get some of mom's lilac starts and they have bloom the last two years. That makes me smile whenever I see them, cause mommy sure did love them. I like that some of the things I planted at my house in town are still growing nicely. I have planted 8 trees out here since we moved here. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThose Marigolds are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMunir, I like these marigolds...they have such a pretty fall color. This font is what my daughter picked when she helped me make a blog...I do not know how to change it. LOL. One day I may be daring and redo my blog..xoxo,Susie
DeleteLove your font.
ReplyDeleteWe had a hickory tree in my yard when I was growing up. Never saw too many nuts on it, though, and we never had any squirrels. Very odd. xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteNellie, we are usually picking up hickory nuts by the buckets..We have paid emma to pick them up ...she loves it.xoxo,Susie
DeleteI love the looks of bright marigolds in the Fall, Susie. Don't care for the smell though. lol I don't have any this year-but I usually do.
ReplyDeleteThe trees are looking pretty bare for you, too, huh? Here, too! Winter is coming-they are predicting snow for across the Bay from us for Friday. UGH- NOT ready! xo Diana

Diana, I do not want to say this too loud...but I think winter might be trying to sneak in on our fall.brr. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI'm with you Susie. The longer we have nice weather days, the less time my bees have to survive the winter! But the fall colors this year have been absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteCindy, we have been very lucky with colors...but I swear the woods behind us is almost bare of foliage. I hope your bees do well. I love to have bees around..I think I know that a honey bee is calm if you are...it's those other buzzy things..I try not to swat at them. xoxo,Susie
DeleteHow pretty!!! Your neighbor's tree is spectacular!
ReplyDeleteI had marigolds in a big pot with my tomato plants. I let them be when I pulled those plants out in September. They are still going strong!! :)

Blondie, I like the marigolds because they do hang a bit longer than some flowers. Did they help keep the bugs from your tomatoes?? xoxo,Susie
DeleteSuch beautiful flowers! The trees are just gorgeous. We don't have that much foliage change here, especially when we've had high 80's and low 90's in October. Cooler today and more on the way. I do hope you don't get snow yet!

HI Pat, Oh boy you are not the only one...I am hoping no real snow till maybe after the 1st of the year....last year we had snow already. Too soon. xoxo,Susie
DeleteHi Susie,
ReplyDeleteOur trees are starting to really lose all their pretty leaves here too. My summer plants like the one on my front door still going strong. Too funny how they just will not give it in even with the colder temps. Loving that they are hanging in there. Have a great week.
Kris
Kris, I am afraid it's going to be colder than a tin t-shirt this weekend. Our furnace has been coming on and we have it set low. We better enjoy our flowers. xoxo,Susie
DeleteThe marigolds are a bright and pretty color, Susie. I love seeing pictures of your park because that's one of my favorite place to take pictures. I see flowers, birds, leaves, and occasionally even a deer. Your neighbor's red trees are so pretty. I wish I had the cooler weather that you have there, Susie.
ReplyDeletelove,
