Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Dawn shows the ridge on the other side of Swannanoa Valley, Nov. 1, 2025. The ridge is so high it makes me feel safe. I can also see cars zoom past on I-40 in one gap in the trees.

A new month!
Jade pendant in the form of a rabbit, Western Zhou Dynasty, circa 900 BC
Happy November! or rabbit, rabbit, if you prefer!
A new mural in my town.
Just admitting how much I prefer coffee. (with a croissant or scone as well!)
Glad we got that straight! (Strait?) wait, that's a homonym!
A nice consideration, and I appreciate being companion to Vicky! It seems to be a wish for good things for the next new time frame. Rabbit rabbit to you as well!
Thanks, it is fun (for me) to read those grammatical things, which I usually forget within minutes. Fruitfulness sounds delightful! Happy Samhain to you (again.)
It's believable here because we had our first frost/freeze. I kept saying, the frost is on the pumpkin. When I lived up north often Halloween would be our first snow.
Hello and Happy November Barb, I love all the wildlife art work. I like the word list, thanks for sharing. The squirrel image is cute! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
It’s November, you say? Now how did that sneak up? I’m so enjoying your coffee rabbit this morning. I can’t put off some sewing for wonderful relative today but it certainly won’t be happening till after I’ve had my coffee. I’m saving my croissant to make a lunchtime sandwich. Have a happy and make some plans to keep looking ahead. It helps.
You reminded me that I need to stop by the grocery store and see if I can pick up some croissants. As much as I like the fresh ones at a bakery I prefer a package where I get four or six for the same price as one. I’m thinking chicken salad would be good on one for lunch,
That mural is beautiful, Barbara, and certainly looks welcoming to visitors. The English language is full of eccentricities and uncertainties and I even have trouble with some of the terms listed…after so many years 😏
...homographs, homophones and paronyms, isn't English great!
ReplyDeleteYou knew I'd have to look those up.. completely grammatically beyond my abilities!
DeleteI love that word list. And add: damage= destruction and damages= monetary compensation. Also white rabbits!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, a very uncomfortable word damage infers, either way you look at it.
Deletethe word "damage" I meant.
DeleteThou and Vicky always remember.
ReplyDeleteA nice consideration, and I appreciate being companion to Vicky! It seems to be a wish for good things for the next new time frame. Rabbit rabbit to you as well!
DeleteHares and Rabbits to you, Barb. Love the words list....and the bunnies.
ReplyDeletewishing you a fruitful Samhain.

DeleteI cannot believe it's November.

DeleteI love that first picture! It took me years to learn the difference between affect and effect, and now I use dictation and it always gets it wrong.
ReplyDeleteMe too, and when the dictation spells things so wrong, I do laugh, or sometimes get mad.
DeleteHappy November! Love the rabbit pendant.
ReplyDeleteThanks for Stopping by. I have been learning about some geography in India thanks to your recent trip.

Sorry, none of the artwork is My own. But I’m happy to share what is available on the Internet, as long as that is acceptable for the critters post.

DeleteLove the mural!
ReplyDeleteIt’s embarrassing that I didn’t take that myself, since I just don’t go walking along where those shops are most days. But isn’t it a beauty?
DeleteRabbitrabbir! November already!
ReplyDeleteAnd here we go in the burr months, getting colder all the time!
DeleteRabbit Rabbit! Happy November!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pat...hope you enjoy November with lots of new things to blog about!
