Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

 Hi Dear Folk,

I can't believe it's November 1st.  We've been having some beautiful weather again, up in the eighties, as it was for last weekend.  I managed to get out in the yard for a bit and bring in many of my terracotta and china pots, we keep them on the outside basement steps, which are covered, as space for garden items is at a premium.  Was able to transplant some geraniums out of the garden back into pots and hope to propagate them and keep them through the winter, I will see how well that works out.  Also brought in my bougainvillea, hope that makes it.  The squirrels decimated my Tahitian Bridle Veil, I may be able to salvage some, re pot it and bring that in for the winter.

I've been working on my crazy quilt, piecing and feather stitching.  I just got another Sarah Moss book from the library, this is fiction "Night Waking."  It's proving to be an interesting read.  I just finished Names For The Sea, autobiographical about Iceland.  So far a lot of the beginning of Night Waking I think could almost be autobiographical as Sarah Moss has two young boys and Anna has two young boys.



Just a couple of pics from The Boy of his trip last weekend to Shenandoah National Park, Virginia.


He had lovely weather all weekend, what a view and here is his Mazda Miata, just right for this kind of drive.


The Boy.
