In a few days I'm sure I'll feel the distinct chill in air when nature lets me know that summer is over and autumn is here. It happens each year, immediately after Labour Day. Summer goes by very quickly and autumn even more so. I hardly caught my breath all summer as I was so busy catching up with decidedly 'unsummerlike' activities. But I'm feeling good about it all and happy to see the backside of many small projects which never seemed to get done. Most of it was paperwork related and that kind of stuff is always good to get out of the way as soon as possible.
I'm enjoying the skies above me as always and I'm grateful for the surprises and gifts offered each day if we look up.
This summer I grew sunflowers in the patio garden.
Normally I only plant them at the community garden but thought I'd do something differently. I noticed the leaves were turning black. I think it was some kind of fungal disease. I just tried to pluck them off and add diatomaceous earth.

Lovely skies and the sun flowers are beautiful.
Beautiful skies and sunflowers! Take care, Happy Friday! Have a great day and a happy weekend.
Oh, I LOVE sunflowers! Yours turned out so pretty! I'm glad you persevered and kept them going! What a blessing to see their sunny faces! Your skies are so beautiful too. Yes, fall is on its way. We are having a foggy morning here, and that seems to happen more in the fall when the temperatures are starting to change a bit. Right now I cannot even see across our pond it is so foggy! Wow! I hope you have a lovely weekend, and thank you for your sweet comments on my post earlier. You are a blessing.
You are so right - sunflowers faces are so happy!
Fall would be my favorite season, and it is a close second behind spring, but it does go by too fast. Gorgeous sunflowers!
Beautiful skies. Your sunflower photos are wonderful!
