Autumn is Near ~ Skywatch Friday
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.

The Northern Lights Visit the South ~ Skywatch Friday
Hello friends and fellow bloggers,
I took the following photos on August 12th. I saw this glow in the sky which I'd not seen before so decided to take some photos. The next day I read that the city had experienced the aurora borealis or the northern lights but that was on August 8th. I think what I captured was the tail end of it. I thought the sky looked pretty cool.

Nature's Beauty ~ Skywatch Friday, August 15, 2025
Hello friends and fellow bloggers,
How are you all doing? Welcome to my Skywatch Friday post.
As summer draws to a close the weather temperatures have also skyrocketed. However cooler temperatures are supposed to be back by the weekend. Just in time for Vancouver's Pacific National Exhibition (PNE). I haven't been to the PNE for a few years so I might go this year. The PNE closes on Labour Day weekend, September 1, 2025. Once it's over I usually notice a distinct chill in the air reminding us that the autumn season will soon be upon us.

Skywatch Friday ~ August 7, 2025
As we leave the month of July and enter into August our hot temperatures have cooled a bit and our skies have become more cloudy. These photos were taken before daybreak. I find it's often cloudy just before daybreak.
We've had cool temperatures and a bit of rain but by Friday and over the weekend it's supposed to get hot again.
Thank you for stopping by my Skywatch Friday post.
