Worms & Such ~

{a little click will enlarge}
A Bird came down the Walk –
He did not know I saw –
He bit an Angleworm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw,

And then he drank a Dew
From a convenient Grass –
And then hopped sidewise to the Wall
To let a Beetle pass.

Emily Dickinson

she built her nest atop an

 outdoor light fixture

and now she is busy feeding

her little ones

I have no idea what kind

 of bird she is.

Forestedge Art Fair ~

On the third weekend of August

the Forestedge Winery

holds an annual

Art Fair

 there were 

intricately made dolls

 of clay and felt

 stained glass items

of various sizes

 colorful bottles recycled

into hanging candles

 music in the gazebo

as people visited

 and enjoyed

the samples of wine

that were provided

 there were samples of

Darrell's "dangerously delicious"

homemade fudge

 bountiful scoops of

 homemade ice cream to be purchased

 sculptures made from 

re-purposed metal

it was a lovely day

from beginning

to end

 *  *  *

there were also

vendors of pottery, weavings, paintings,

homemade women's hats,  jewelry,

birdhouses and wind chimes,

plus a variety of tempting foods

Wisdom by Pooh ~

“When having

a

smackerel of something

with a friend,

don't eat so much

that you get stuck in the doorway

trying to get out.”

Winnie the Pooh

when civility
falls
by
the wayside

it appears

there's

more

than one way

to

get

what 

you want

I'll confess

I'm easily amused

by

sights such as this

{a character flaw of sorts}

but

a person's gotta wonder about

the future of that sheep

A New Day ~

I see

the 

morning

embracing

the sky

casting shadows

of future

banqueting tables

welcoming

a

new day

~ ~ ~

for all of your kind

comments, thoughts and prayers

I

thank you

and

will be around

to visit

soon
