Our tree is practically laying on the ground it is so full of apples. I am hoping to make apple bread today but I am running slow this afternoon. <br /><br />That heron photo is so beautiful. Herons make me think of my stepdad who passed away at the beginning of the summer. These tall lanky patient birds just remind me of him. crackercrumblifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717268437339860455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-15967012718508596422019-09-13T12:47:17.795-04:002019-09-13T12:47:17.795-04:00This place looks so nice and cozy!

What a lot of work for a dozen quart bottles of sauce! I agree with you about the Lilac Girls which I finally finished last week. It will be discussed at our library’s daytime book group this week. The author will also be speaking there at the end of this month, but I haven’t bought a ticket to the event. I haven’t read a lot of books on the subject, but heard of others including The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and Sophie's Key...nit sure if I will read those. Just finished The Music Shop by Rachel Joyce and now reading Jeffrey Archer’s , Nothing Ventured, which introduces Detective William Warwick.Beatrice P.

I have been tempted to read Lilac Girls, but every time I think about it I back up and say maybe not. I think I would have weakened and bought some apples. Yumm! So pretty! And milkweed and butterflies is so very very wonderful!<br />Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-29368170718650345452019-09-09T18:53:23.892-04:002019-09-09T18:53:23.892-04:00A rainy cozy day by the fire with a good book soun...A rainy cozy day by the fire with a good book sounds delicious. <br />I'm glad you've had your sweet season by the water and that the apples<br />and golden sunsets of September await you even as you say goodbye for the Summer.

Your photos are always a joy to see. The basket of apples made me smile, as I'm already getting into the Autumn season, and nothing says Fall like apples. The butterfly is beautiful. That was nice of your friend to prepare goodies for you when you visited. Your fireplace is cozy, and an interesting wreath above. Are those lights hanging from the wreath? I bet it was a lovely sight to see the rain come down over the lake<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-44774535318980598692019-09-09T10:37:05.181-04:002019-09-09T10:37:05.181-04:00Aww, look at those apples, they must be delicious....Aww, look at those apples, they must be delicious.

I know my parents often find that to be true when they leave on Sundays to head back to work. They are looking forward to making their permanent home at the lake. But they need to retire first - and hopefully soon as they are both 71! <br /><br />It's been cooler and super windy here lately. I really hate windy days. I can handle cooler temps but wind is just not pleasant! It feels like a wind tunnel in downtown Minneapolis. The wind must be trapped in between the tall building or something? It's unpleasant! I'm hoping we have calm, warm days left as I'm not ready for the cold stuff!!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-79352150557753875272019-09-09T08:38:43.740-04:002019-09-09T08:38:43.740-04:00Leaving your cottage on the lake is really admitti...Leaving your cottage on the lake is really admitting that summer is almost gone.

It seems early this year, doesn't it. I don't usually expect it until later in the month. But you were smart- a fire to take off the chill, a good book (and it does sound good), but it is sad watching summer disappear, mainly because it will be so long before it returns. Hope you have a great week.
