September has wonderful weather. Warm sunshine pouring from blue skies dotted with big white , fluffy clouds lights up the sunflowers and stone crop and Kate's chickens' feathers! Swamp maples are lit up with bright red leaves  giving a hint of what is to come in the next month of changing foliage. The old, hollow apple trees in the yard are heavily laden with fat, big  red and green apples. These dear old trees keep producing fruit year after year . That is a miracle because the trunks are mere shells. Cabby and CeCe and Jingles , and the chickens, love these apples just as much as Louisa loves feeding them to the critters. I hear that the blonde angel who lives in Cornish loves throwing apples to the pigs at the farm her family visits, and bonked one right between the eyes a few days ago! This pretty month leads us to October-a great month -but more on the that  in a later blog. Here are some pics relevant to September, delightful September-colors, flowers, the pond, last skis, new babies and dear little girls.




                          Sunflowers-the results of magic between the sun, the earth, and the rain drops-all from   little seeds I pushed into the soil in May!!

Kate showing her Nationals form! Good Luck!
A migrating, visiting loon-he (or she!) had a friend with him.

Sweet little Teelin-truly a gift!
The fall colors starting at Northern Acres
Darling Louisa in the boat
Monet learning about baby brothers-a marvelous experience!
September has been awesome so far, and I left out all the September family birthday folks. The good thing is that there are a couple of weeks left.

Great pictures... Your sun flowers look awesome. We have one that is 1/16 the size of yours! We planted it too late...
