Feels Like Summer Again With A Bit Of This & That

Yes we did have some fall weather last week  but suddenly summer weather has appeared again , humid sticky air but the breezes have been cool .
Our kids were down for the weekend and all had a nice time and visit . James helped Papa and cut the grass for him .


 Both James and David are newly certified welders and are both enjoying their new welding jobs and our oldest David made this for me  , a horse shoe napkin holder I love it .


 We had a nice Chiminea fire Saturday evening  and roasted some marshmallows , sat around the patio table near the fire and chatted laughed and enjoyed the evening . Sunday was a puttering day then after supper they went home. It was nice to have them  here for the weekend .


I have been seeing lots of Monarchs flutter through the yard and occasionally stop by on their migration path that we are so lucky to be on . I am a member of the Facebook group Monarchs Migrating Through Ontario and have let them know I am still seeing them and give them a count and as some of the group raises , tags  and releases  them , I like to let them know whether they are tagged or not  and how many I have seen on each day ,so far none have been  I have seen.



 Miggs is enjoying the weather and follows me everywhere as I have been in the gardens getting them cleaned up , trimmed back and ready to be put to bed for the next  season .



Last night the moon was soo pretty in the clear but damp sky .



        Well that's about it for me for now we are supposed to have rain but all the dark clouds have been going over us with out releasing a drop and we need rain bad , it hasn't rained in a few weeks , the only reason we have some green grass left is the odd dewy morning that has saved the odd patch here and there .

Hope you are all enjoying the  Fall well Summer well ok Fall season summer temps lol !
   
                                                                  Until next time .

We were supposed to have 70% rain today but only had a brief sprinkle. It’s hot and sticky again. This weather is so mxed up, but I can deal with it for a few more weeks.

Miggs is looking quite stoic.

I think we only got into the low twenties today, and there's been the threat of rain in the clouds much of the day.

Summer has been hanging around a long time here, though it really on arrived Sept. 21st! Rained a lot today.

Sounds like a really nice easy weekend was enjoyed by all. My son is also taking a college welding course now, and has gifted me some really nice pieces over the years from his high school course.
I never realized butterflies could be tagged. Where do they put the tags? We've had quite a few fly through here this summer (more than usual). All those rain clouds have been holding on till they get to my area. We've had a few sporadic days of rain, and today looks like another wet one. Things are turning brown despite that though. Enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend!

Belated Happy Thanksgiving to you, Elaine. Glad to read about the family get together. The napkin holder looks like it can hold a fair amount of napkins too.
