Black-eyed susans in our back yard.

when in doubt…
One of the nice things about living where we do is that we can still have campfires. We have a fire pit in the back yard and regularly burn the many, many, branches that come down from our silver maple trees. In this case a little green wood from some bush trimming was thrown into the mix.

On the fall equinox, one of our purple cone flowers reminds us of warmer days and of cooler days to come.
feast
It’s really hard to get a really sharp photo of a spider while it’s eating and while the wind is blowing. Nate and I worked on this for a while, and we got a few. I set up the camera and he pushed the shutter button. What a team! (This is the same spider as the photo I posted the other day, except this was taken the day after the first.)
