| A cold first day of October--the perfect time to visit 1812 Antiques in Grafton. Pat Poisson, the owner, always has a beautiful chandelier in the shop window, and artfully arranges her treasures |
 |
| a sweet dollhouse for sale--the roof opens up to reveal the interior |
 |
| another dollhouse made by the same person; this one does not open. Wouldn't it be perfect under a Christmas tree or in a window? |
 |
| Pat's dog, a Shiba Inu named Rennie, is always in the shop. She told me that her Japanese name is 'Little Princess Falling Blossom'! |
 |
| lots of activity at the Cobourg harbour today; boats were being taken out of the water with a crane and lined up on the pier awaiting storage |
 |
| there are still some gorgeous dahlias hanging on in my garden |
 |
| the frogs in our pond have multiplied to an incredible number |
 |
| a pic of the cutting garden |
 |
| luscious colours of a fading rose |
 |
| the garden seems even more precious now that a frost is only days (or weeks) away |
 |
| this is Lisa's favourite dahlia this season |
 |
| .......and this might be mine, although that will probably change by next week! |
 |
| the zinnias have been amazing this summer; I started several varieties from seed and all were beautiful. Hopefully I'll have time to try dyeing wool with some of the blossoms before frost |
