Daydreamers delight

Early mornings. Just a bit of a nip in the air. Sun an hour over the horizon, not warm enough to burn off the early fog. October. It just doesn't get much better then this.
A holiday weekend off. Waiting until Monday to avoid the crowds. The town has such a quaint look about it this time of year.

The gulls have made this boat into an island. Certainly a mess for the owners to clean up later.

The trees are beginning to turn colors. A pretty as a post card day.

Deep blue sky and glorious gold leaves.


Nearly hidden in the grass was this interesting mushroom with fairy tendrils along its cap.
Yes, October is my favorite month. And this year we are having the nicest weather - Perfect for walks and bonfires, birdwatching and daydreaming.
Tomorrow I will be back to stitching. To turning my sewing space into utter chaos as I put together the quilt for the granddaughter due to arrive in November. But today, I will procrastinate just a bit longer...

I don't know where you live but I love everything you show and describe! The pictures are fabulous! I'm in Texas and it's cool at night but 80ish during the day. I love October too and I hope for some cooler temps to accompany it soon! Have a great week! D~~~~

I love fall too and your photos are wonderful. Especially love the top one with barn; the leaves and the mushroom.

What gorgeous pictures! I thought the first one was an oil painting! We are having a wonderful fall. I'm enjoying it right along with you.

Great pictures! Our Fall is glorious so far. I love watching the trees turn & feeling the crispness in the air.
