Keep your face always towards the sun...


Keep your face always towards the sun- and the shadows will fall behind you  
Walt Whitman


 Well, here we are in the middle of January and we definitely 
have more gray days than sunny ones!

   
So I decided to pull out some pictures from this past fall.  My garden brings me great joy and happiness!

My little fairy stands among the garden that's gone to rest, 

bedded by the amber and coppery leaves of fall.


Streaming rays 

 

Viewing out my home office window 

 

These flowers were still blooming into November!  

Makes ya smile, doesn't it??  

 

Today the snow had melted enough to see the grass again- a brief respit from our winter weather up north here, and an enjoyable sight!

 

Thank-you so much for all the comments on my post from last Sunday that was linked to the Sunlit Sunday party.  I am just getting better from a sinus infection and didn't get around to thanking everyone but I did read them all and always appreciate them!

 

Come join 

My Little Home and Garden 

for

Sunlit Sunday

  7. Your garden and yard photos are beautiful. I love the fall colours. And gorgeous roses too! It's very foggy and at the freezing mark here today. A warm up is coming in. ;)

  8. Aren't you the fortunate one to have such a view from your office window! I really like the photo of the streaming rays of sunlight and, of course, the late roses.

    I hope you're feeling better, Liz.
