Wave and say "Laters"
It has been an adventure
I won't soon forget...

From October, I'll be visiting my sister and brother in law,
for a while.

Autumn's different-
Here in Florida the change
Is harder to spot

© 2024 Pamela MacCarthy

After the Autumn Equinox,
it's officially Fall...

I'm not yet completely acclimated to the Florida-version.
I do miss the cooler weather, dramatic colors and light,
the scents, and darker days...

Not a complaint, mind you,
just an observation.

Happy Birthday to Janine!

From The Pier
Storm Clouds Over The Shack
(Tiki Bar)

Anticipation
For the Harvest Moon / Eclipse -
Clouds got in my way...

© 2024 Pamela MacCarthy

At karaoke last night,
I was hoping to get a great view
with some interesting photos of this celestial event...

Nope.
As the pawn broker sez:
'Best we can do is a nice display of heat-lightning...

1 song, 1 beer, and I made tracks.
Too hot to linger.

Here's an adorable selfie taken
while reading the latest news...

I sit and read by the pool while waiting for (nearby) laundry cycle
to finish to move to dryer...

View of Early September...

September is here
Each year that means something else
For now, it's water...

© 2024 Pamela MacCarthy

At karaoke this past Tuesday,
I met some new, interesting people...
It was a fun night!

Yesterday as I sat quietly by the pool,
this tiny lizard appeared
out of the corner of my eye...

Last View of August...

The future's unclear
But I'll always remember
'Time on this river...

© 2024 Pamela MacCarthy

I took this from the Pier
last Tuesday, Aug. 27th.

Even with a breeze, it was too sticky-hot to stay out long.

But what colors!

Happy Labor Day, All!

Till Next Time...

I've been a bit melancholy lately...
Maybe it's just the end of the Summer Blues.

That's what my paintbox is for!
