.life is fleeting – it happens – like the moment that comes and goes – there is only now.
Get things started with Grit. If you work on things in daily life with the attitude of “let’s do it” you will feel a power to accomplish things. People around you will rely on you.

Altho’ the actual date set aside for Halloween is the 31st. I hear on the radio that the parties and gatherings will happen this week-end, If they are not already started, they will be in full swing over the next couple of days. We’ve had rain of late, the beautiful colours that sprang out all around to greet us weeks ago, have faded and many have fallen to the ground from being pelted by the rain.
I spent many happy hours exploring all the creativity that is in SL (Second Life).. entering into the magical world of the many seasonal destinations that the fertile minds the artists in SL have created for the viewer’s enjoyment. The SL pictures above were taken at Pacifique ..http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Pacifique/50/173/3748 the owner and artistic director of these amazing builds is Eclair Martinek.. if you are a player/citizen of Second Life, this is the link that will take you to this delightful build.. If you are a photographer , she has given us many photo opportunities, If you just like to play and have fun, explore .. there are caves, tunnels, scuba diving, a mermaid ballroom, hot air balloons.. and the list goes on.
We are not all going to go out Trick or Treating, but we can treat ourselves to the many offerings that abound at this time of year, Life is to be enjoyed….

It has been raining these past few mornings, still the little ones come for breakfast, Photographer Jim Robertson was out the other morning, and captured these two regulars. (https://adobe.ly/3QB6AOc ) It never fails to amaze me how sweet and friendly the little critters are. The Chipmunks can be hard to see as they gather up the corn, nuts, seeds amongst the leaves. The nuthatch can be bold… but usually behaves when strangers come by,
Put Makoto even into small things, Don’t let things go with “oh well” you will have a different outcome if you put Makoto (sincerity) in all you do.

Kingston Penitentiary, now closed and opened for tours (at certain times)..not very inviting is it. In our searching out of doors, we learn a lot about the past. Going through the doors of the Pen, would not have given anyone feelings of hope … Looking through the open doorways into what was.. certainly leaves you with a determination not to spend much time there.
Seeing the pictures, leaves me with an appreciation for the life I have had, and that i live and enjoy,
My huge thanks to photographer I, Mitchell for giving me permission to use his photos. It is because of the interest/ talent/creativity of others that we are able to enjoy such a vast array of the wonders that abound in the world around us, Today I will get to see architecture and doors from all over the world as I tour the posts of fellow “Thursday Door” bloggers. You can too by visiting, Dan’s No Facilities site… https://nofacilities.com/2023/10/26/barns-of-somers/ On Sundays he posts a summary of all the Thursday Door posts. Have a look.

btw. Halloween isn’t only about ghosts, and scary things, the season is full of colour, and happy faces,/costumes and get together as friends have fun. Let’s face it.. how many “good” witches do you know!!!
Yesterday I looked up as I was walking back to my car, and saw a Benedictine monk standing behind a stand of trees, I got out my camera.. I had to look a few times, but yes… I saw him standing there as clear as day. As I put the camera into a different position, and moved to get a better shot, a big white van backed up and obstructed my view. The moment had come and gone.
The photographer driving the van offered to pull out so I could get the shot but you all know, if you don’t catch it when the light is just right and you are in the one spot where the “moment” appears.. its gone, lost.
Life is a series of moments.. no more.. no less.
Move forward with confidence. Experience you have acquired through efforts so far are wonderful. Give it all you’ve got.

Our farms, our landscapes they are treasures … let’s protect and appreciate the wonderful bounty of what we have received… Pumpkins = Smiles. Share a smile today.
observation… with the fall weather, there have been a lot more visitors to the conservation area, families coming out with the children to take in the fall colours. What is particularily fun is seeing how the faces light up when they see the rainbow of colours presented to them, especially when the skies are a clear blue, and the clouds white and puffy,,,
Reminder, there will be two services this Saturday (21st) one at 10 a.m. and one at 7 pm.

We are all wonderful in our own way. Although results are important your effort is what is truly precious.

A drive through a rural area that I had not visited in some time … a breath of fresh air, living in a bustling city with constant traffic, near 4 major hospitals, a baseball stadium, and bustling commercial areas, this was a drive that was soothing and restful. Hope you enjoy the doors that we passed along the way,
For more doors please visit Dan’s No Facilities site.. where other door/architecture enthusiast will be posting their doors for this week, https://nofacilities.com/2023/10/12/aug-sept-leftovers/ His post today outlines and gives information on Thursday Doors, should you be interested in posting yourself.
