Happy September

Somehow September arrived and now it's already the 3rd of September. How does this happen?

Well company left this morning. We had a good time visiting with family, going to Abingdon for a play and lunch, and going to the Hillsville Labor Day Flea Market (an experience we most likely won't repeat).  So back to my more normal activities - dog walks, canning, watching TV. 

The US Open (Tennis) is on and am now watching Serena Williams and Victoria Azarneka and it's just gotten interesting. Venus lost her serve when serving for the match now 5-5.  Aaaah - over now - Serena won.

maybe smartweed or pinkweed
Jewelweed aka Touch me not
Max and I had a nice walk today.  There are signs that fall will soon be here.
Va Creeper and Poison Ivy


 A few new wildflowers in bloom. The Va Creeper and poison ivy are starting  to turn colors. They are always the first ones. 

Little white daisy-like wildflower
And then made applesauce, dill pickles and picked the grapes. Grapes were doing good and then all of a sudden just dried out or birds ate them. Only got one bucket and don't expect to get more.
