Indian Summer

The past couple of weeks have been absolutely beautiful

here in south central Kansas.

Our temperatures have been in the low to mid eighties

with lots of sunshine.

We could use the rain but I'm afraid once it's starts it

will be the end to our beautiful

Indian Summer.

I decided to head outside with my camera to take a few

pictures while everything still looks bright

 and colorful.

The vegetable garden is still producing tomatoes.

LOTS of tomatoes!

Better than it did all summer actually.

The cats came with me as usual...they try not to

miss a thing.

I don't know what kind of a plant they were eating

but they acted like it was catnip!

Olly (Oliver) ate his fill and then went off to explore

but Lizzy stayed.

I think she knew I was taking her picture because she rolled

and rolled and flipped and put on a wonderful show for me.

The cats and I continued on our stroll around the farm.

I was actually able to find some RED leaves...yeay!

The Mums I put in the old wheel barrow are

loving all the sunshine.

We headed out to the mailbox to see the new

cover...I like it. Not that anyone else

can see it way out in the boonies

but I'm sure our mailman will enjoy a change of

scenery.

Time for one more shot of Olly posing on the big tree stump

he and Lizzy love to play on.

It was a beautiful day and I'm glad I was able to get some

pictures to look back on this winter.

Winter has it's beauty but Fall is the star of the seasons

for me.

I'm linking again with Mary over at Little Red House

for Mosaic Monday I hope you will go and visit Mary and look around at all the wonderful Mosaics everyone has created. You may just meet some new blogging friends!

I hope you all have a wonderful week.
