Every Fleeting Moment

 

The next few weeks are lining up with genuine autumn events, 

and a few end-of-summer happenings. 

It's a busy season, but I wanted to share 

some fall photos and updates.

It's almost board game time. I recognize the hands in this photo, 

the shapes of people I love who can no longer navigate an evening 

of dice, cards, or laughter. It's a lesson--savor every fleeting moment.

We have piles of logs for campfires, fuel for flame-gazing 

ponderings and pulling stories from deep coat pockets--

the kind rarely shared and told in hushed tones. 

The Heavenly Blue morning glory vine has become a magnificent 

monster. She's wrapped herself around an entire 

section of fence and roamed to the top of the greenhouse. 

When the blues reach their peak at the end of October, 

they'll put on a show to remember all the bleak 

winter days to come. 

The delicate backyard beauty of a spider's art, laced with 

autumn dew--another snapshot of everyday wonder. 

The sun is setting earlier and earlier on the fall season 

of 2025. I'm ready to begin letting this year go. 

Is it the same for you?
