Well, today is officially the first day of fall and we have certainly been enjoying some fall weather here. Cooler nights and much cooler and less muggy days. Late yesterday afternoon when I took miss Bailey out I could smell fall. You know what I mean? The woods behind our house get the decaying leaves smell. We do already have some falling. Here are some shots I took out back last weekend.
All the corn has been cut down and I may just gather these up and use them out front for some more fall decor.
The okra just gets taller and taller and it is still producing.
The rest of these shots are the flowers/weeds growing along the wood line.
Anyone know what those bugs are?
I don't think I ever showed y'all Mr. Savvy's vineyard he started when we planted the garden. He planted three tiny plants and wow have they gone nuts.
Have a wonderful day and happy fall, y'all.
Beautiful shots Kim!! Happy Fall!
ReplyDeleteHappy Fall Kim.
ReplyDeleteI turned my heater on the other night, it's getting nippy in the evenings here on the Oregon coast too.
I loved your pretty picture of the leaves on the water! Enjoy the weekend.
Kim,
ReplyDeleteYes fall is here too.Cold,rainy and windy.The smell of burning leaves.But my allergies are terrible this time of year! Must be all the mold and things floating around.

Kim, I also love your shot of the leaves on the water. I am going to use it as inspiration for a fall quilt. Hugs, Dawna
ReplyDeleteYour fall garden is looking good Kim!
ReplyDeleteWe are enjoying the cooler temps here today! Today is going to be absolutely gorgeous....I can't wait!!! I'm afraid we won't have a very pretty fall this year though because of the drought. Most of the trees dropped their leaves a couple of months ago! Have a great weekend :o)

Love the shot of leaves on the pond water!!! Yes, at last, cool weather. Today we have rain, which is badly needed, and the skies are gray and moody......stunning with the changing colors against them. This is my favorite time of year......
ReplyDeletehappy Fall!!! My favourite time of year. Upon moving for the North East to the South East, I was a snob and found nothing beautiful in North Central Florida Fall compared to what I was used to up North. Now, the word Y'all flow from my ton gue and I see beauty everywhere. Different , but still beautiful! Bull rushes (cat tails) and Ragweed, Queen Anne's lace..
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your pictures..
Cheers, Gee
I do believe fall is sneaking around the corner...

You've got some pretty wildflowers growing in your woods! I love the picture of the Fall leaves in your pond. It looks like it came out of a magazine!
ReplyDeleteThe grapes look wonderful. Did you get any to eat this year? Our weather has went from 90's down to the 40's even calling for sleet on Monday. We skipped right over Fall here.
ReplyDeleteOkay, today I can officially accept that fall has arrived. It is colder and so windy here today. Dont even want to go outside and do anything today!
ReplyDeleteLove it Kim! I love your pretty shots too!~ The pond with the leaves looks so pretty too. Gorgeous day here in the Carolina's! Fall is in the air for sure.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fall, Kim. Your pictures are so pretty. Loved the oje of the pond with the leaves. XO
ReplyDeletelove seeing pictures around your garden. Have a wonderful day, Kim!
ReplyDeleteWe'll all squeezing the last bit of summer out of the weekend. Love the leaves on the water pic! ~ Maureen
ReplyDeleteWe are not having fall yet in San Diego, so it's fun seeing your pics. Love the picture with the leaves in the water!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, use the dried corn! They tie corm shocks around the light posts in Foley, AL and put pumpkins at the base. It's really pretty.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fall, Y'all.
Happy Fall Kim! Yes it's cooler here as well in Ontario Canada. The frost is on the pumpkin...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos Kim~ love the vineyard too. :)
ReplyDeleteKim...gorgeous pictures...Are those fall leaves in your pond?....Gorgeous...Our leaves are still "stuck on the trees"...only acorns on the ground!!!...Have a wonderful weekend!!!...Oh, so what kind of grapes..?
ReplyDeleteThat is really great!!...Now, if it is Chardonnay, I will be over!! :)
We are still having summer here. Cant wait for the trees to turn to orange and yellow.
ReplyDeleteIt was chilly out yesterday morning when I was taking pictures around the yard. Really a nice change.
ReplyDeleteI love the leaves on pond shot Kim.
Dried Okra is wonderful in floral arrangements. Have you used it for this?
I think it is somekind of moth, but since I don't know your location, it's hard to truly identify. Here are some links to check out some that look close to the picture.

Those pictures are so pretty, Kim, and really capture how the Autumn changes things in the garden. Our gardens are turning here as well, now that Fall has officially arrived and the nights are much colder.
