follow url Life is about muddling through the middle. November is about endings and beginnings. The ending of autumn’s high season and the beginning of autumn’s low season.

https://semnul.com/creative-mathematics/?p=ir77w6f2g0 Autumn, three months long, loses much of its easily seen glory after the first month. Autumn conjures scenes of flaming trees, crisp fall mornings which glide into warm sunny days, apple picking, pumpkin patching, harvest gathering. That is high season autumn, autumn in its glory.

https://ragadamed.com.br/2024/09/18/a1u4sngph Then the low season of autumn arrives. The generosity of the year’s gardens dwindles. Anything worth saving from the coming cold is saved.

watch The first hard frost crisps the hardiest plants, the cold holds them in icy suspension for a few hours, and their leaves droop, as if in a state of exhaustion. Plants crinkle, dry out.

https://traffordhistory.org/lookingback/3akpd4g12v The planters are emptied, plants pulled from their summer containers and dropped on the compost pile; gardens are trimmed – a few perennials are cut short and banked with mulch in preparation for the soon to fly snow. The taller ones, their seed heads dried and bountiful, remain standing, crowded one upon another for support.

see For now, the garden is quiet, an empty space. Wait until autumn is in her last days. The seed heads of the cone flowers and sunflowers will be the birds’ favorite in late December when other feeders are empty and the ground is hidden in drifts of snow.

  1. Buy Valium Diazepam 10Mg A beautiful, haunting good-bye to the splash-of-color autumn. But a necessary season to bring out next summer’s glory. Just not a wanted season.

      https://livingpraying.com/8w07mdwp It is a rather haunting photo. It felt so much like the end of the beautiful vibrant autumn I so love, and the beginning of the drab, cold, and gray world I find rather difficult to love. Photographs say much about the photographer, it seems…

  2. go site Feels kind of antique to me. It’s not drab or cold, just seems like yesterday.

  3. follow Oh Bo, you really are a warm-weather girl, aren’t you? No wonder you love Arizona so much, with its warm weather and equally as warm colours. I see beauty, even in your portrayal of the end of the saeson. And spring will return…
