Moon Shadows – November 3

Two days yet until the full Beaver Moon, and the moon tonight was so bright it threw shadows as I went to the barn for night check. And, oh, yes, we transitioned to daytime turnout when Harry returned from the hospital. While he was there, the horses stayed out day and night.

Slow progress toward improvement continues, with Weedy and Eddy doing all they can to keep Harry happy.

This has been a particularly difficult Autumn, but for all the beauty of the season, it has for years been shadowed with some sadness. For consolation, I turn to animals and Nature, which we have in abundance.

It has been a strange change of season. The light has altered, as it always does, but we have not had a real frost yet. The first frost date used to fall in the first week of October! Also, the lilac and clematis have rebloomed recently, which is very unusual.

I had my camera handy while up at the mailbox and happened to see Jane’s Sandy enjoying the proverbial greener grass on the other side of the fence…

Back at the house, the dogs and Roscoe provide great comfort and healing to both Harry and me. We are very fortunate!

Be safe, be well, be kind, be grateful. Slava Ukraini! Peace…

    Beautiful photos! While Harry looks completely at ease, the boys give an “on guard” appearance. They know the boss is not 100%!

    Nature seems confused doesn’t it? Nothing is normal anymore. The clematis is gorgeous.

    Love the photo of Tom Morris. I just want to pet him! Roscoe and Weedy look so comfy together. Why can’t everyone who is a little different get along as well together as those two do?! Looks like Weedy and Eddie are taking good care of Harry. Tell them to keep up the good work!

    Wow, what excellent photos! Last week when I was there, Eddie came to barn and received plenty of pets while I took a load off for a bit. The Pearl Brothers photo looks like it could be a poster!!
