I could stare for hours at a good spider web. I love admiring the patterns and designs.....and the delicate designs and how the light hits each strand. Lately there have been so many out on my walks. Here are a couple of my favs.
We recently visited with our friends Mandy and Steve at their farm, 3 Porch Farm. We were there in the Spring when Steve began the Shitake inoculation process....and here we are 5 months later with pounds of mushrooms. It was a little exciting.
We spent the afternoon in the country at 3 Porch Farm. The butterflies in their flower gardens were so magical!
The vines have been growing like crazy all summer long. If you are not careful you can get all tangeled up like this shack. A common scene in the south.
We are starting to see cooler days and nights here and we have been making lots of soups and pies. I got a beautiful Nappa Cabbage in our CSA box this week and made a simple cabbage pie last night.

I passed by this tractor the other day. I think it is safe to assume that it is 'out of order'.
i went for a woods walk recently after a big rain, and was so glad i did. so many amazing mushrooms in their little environments. enjoy!
