a Saturday in October

This photo…serendipity…

On the way to town I drove into a nursery…the entrance on a kind of blind curve.

But, I was too early, the nursery opened 30 minutes later.

I turned around in the lot and before getting back on the highway…the clouds and the light and the snow…and the birds: serendipty!

Another day of spectacular light.

Bear with me in the Jeep, we had a walk, fueled the Jeep, got groceries and other supplies.

We were home just before noon. Bear ran the property while I unloaded and put away.

Then…worn out from the morning and asleep in his chair, all supplies put away….Bob and I had our time…on the front porch.

Low tech pen and paper…I sat and thought and made my list for the rest of the weekend:
clean floors
roast tomatoes
roast cauliflower
cabbage soup
pesto mac n cheese
pot of beans
wild rice for this week…

Later.

Some of the list done.

Bob inside for a nap.

Bear and I outside. Gray skies. Drizzle.

The beardog patrols the property.

A Fall afternoon. The larch are lightening.

a Saturday…in October.
