Ruby Tuesday: Rowan Berries

We’re still having summery days here, but the rowan berries turning red is an umistakable sign that we’re entering into the Autumn season.

Mosaic Monday: Watership Down*

Sometimes after a hot day I go for a stroll around the old cemetery nearby where I live. Ooops… Seems I disturbed the whole colony of wild rabbits in the middle of their supper!

* “Watership Down” is the title of a novel by Richard Adams, featuring a group of (anthropomorphised) rabbits escaping the destruction of their warren and seeking a place to establish a new home.

FMTSO: Seasonal Fun

When I look back on our sunny, beautiful summer this year,
it’s the quiet moments that stand out most to me.

Some rare such quiet moments on my own balcony
(cut out from the usual background noises
that come with living among lots of other people,
who also like to sit on their balconies
and to keep doors and windows open…)

Reading on a park bench

 

An occasional drive out into the countryside
with visiting friends or relatives

Wildflowers at the roadside

Having lunch in some unusual place
(like an old barn, now popular restaurant)

Or just a walk to the Museum Park in town,
and cup of tea at their summer café.

Sunny and still afternoons in the garden
at my parents’ old place outside town.

And a quiet early morning walk down by the lake.
