TWiP: Lovely October

This Week in Pictures, Week 43, 2019

Can you believe we’ve just completed the 43rd week of the year already? We are deep into Fall around here – many of the trees are bare, and those that still have their leaves are exploding with yellow and orange. There’s very little green left. It’s a good thing this time of year is so pretty, otherwise I think I’d find it depressing to see all of our lush greenery whither away and die, knowing that we have several months of challenging weather ahead.

It does sound pretty depressing, when you say it that way, eh? Luckily it’s a feast for the senses, so you don’t have to think about it too much. Besides being pretty, Autumn smells good, tastes good, sounds good… I’ve been taking pictures, baking, and listening to leaves crunch underfoot, and it’s been a lovely October, in that way.

So, what is This Week in Pictures?

It’s a roundup of the microblogging I’ve done on Flickr and Instagram all week. This includes photos I shot for Project 365 and any other extra images I may have posted.

Photos taken with 📷 (Canon EOS 80D) or 📱 (Samsung Galaxy S7).

Ready? Cast your mind back to this time last week…

Saturday

Our 8th Rhinebeck!

Once again, most of my #rhinebeck2019 haul is food 🤣. Here is the only sheepy and wooly stuff I bought: a signed copy of @claraparkes new book (which I may be curling up with shortly) and two skeins of yarn from @intothewhirled. Yay!

And now, time to put my sore feet up in this hotel room and maybe find a movie to watch ☺️

It’s a rainy Fall morning, and I’m off to work. I wish weekends were longer. This would be a great day to stay home, sipping tea and reading,

Wednesday

296/365
I took this picture with the intention of declaring that this coffee machine hates me, but then the boss sent out a message that the machine is broken, so apparently it’s not only me. The machine currenly hates everyone.

Thursday

I’ve always wanted fairy lights around the kitchen window. Now, where should I put the other 23 strands that came in the box? LOL!

Friday

In answer to yesterday’s question, I can always throw a few strands artistically into the azaleas while I photograph the changing leaves…
