It’s a quiet Saturday morning, no wind, the sky bright blue with feathery clouds, baby goats sleeping soundly after their bottles.
Last night we worked late bucking bales, filling the barn with hay before Winter arrives. I’ve always loved the smell of fresh hay. It calms me somehow and brings back happy memories of sleepovers in a neighbors’ barn with my friends when we were little girls.
This morning I was up early, feeding all our ducks, chickens, and geese, filling their water troughs, and giving the dogs a cuddle. I checked on my gardens, happy to see several tree cuttings leafing out and my red cabbage seedlings getting bigger every day.
As I wander around the farm now, I see true signs of Autumn that make me smile. Like this leathery leaf in vivid sunset colors.
And these beautiful seedpods looking like a sculpture against the rough, rusty surface of an old trailer.

I love how you see beauty in nature, Krista… we are as one on this. Happy weekend, lovely.
It’s so good to find kindred spirits in this world, @liz_posmyk:disqus 🙂 I can’t wait to meet you in person one day. XO
Your camera sees things we all miss.
I think nature is like my own personal labyrinth, @OrgasmicChef:disqus – I wander and look and notice and it calms and settles me. XO
The colors of autumn are so beautiful!!
They sure are, @joanneeatswellwithothers:disqus So rich and glowy 🙂
So much to do. Love the though of you feeding those babies and then them sleeping with full little tummies. Such a lovely life you live.
The babies make me happy every day, @taniamykitchenstoriescomau:disqus 🙂 They’re so cute and sweet.
Mmmm I love cinnamon in my porridge!
Me too, @jeannehorak:disqus – it raises it from plain to sublime. 🙂
