Welcome... September.
Beautiful September Morn...
in
Iowa.
Heading off to The Racing Living Estate Sale, in a bit.
{Barring all Tragedies, Low Flying Planes,
and
Barreling Crazy Trains!!}

Sad to see Summer... slip away,
but...
Truly Enjoy This Time of Year!!
<3
Morning's are a little crisper.
Night's are getting a bit...
cooler.
The Old Oak... is dropping acorns, like Crazy.
They sound amazing, when they tap the tin roof.
It's like they're inviting, reminding...
teasing....
us to come
Outside,
and
Play.
<3
No time to 'Play' this...
September Morn,
but...
enjoyed a little coffee, under his
Big...
Beautiful
Branches.
: )
Hope You...
Enjoy This First Day
of
September.
Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.
