Morning Cup Of Joe@ The Cottage Market

We just needed to find some fall fun this weekend. Hearing the Navy football game from our front porch, played without outside spectators, was not fun. Buying pumpkins from the commissary was effective but missing some element. We needed to find a pumpkin experience stat!

Turning to the internet we discovered a farm about an hour away that seemed to offer some fall adventure, so we packed up our new ride and drove to the country…and I’m so glad we did. The weather was beautiful, the people were friendly and the animals adorable. It might become a yearly tradition.

If you find yourself in the DC area and crave a little fun down on the farm, check out Horsmon Farms

I hope you find a little fun this fall!

Fall is the most wonderful season! A simple walk is eventful, even if our usual favorite fall activities are not happening. I’m holding out for the pumpkin patch and apple picking, but Navy Football, trick or treating and fall festivals are just not to be this year. We are left with gorgeous weather, fun porch decorations, pumpkin spiced treats and soothing fireplace. I also have an excuse to put dozens of pumpkins around the house. It’s not all bad.

I was a top 10 pick at Senior Salon

Song for Autumn 

 by Mary Oliver

In the deep fall
don’t you imagine the leaves think how
comfortable it will be to touch
the earth instead of the
nothingness of air and the endless
freshets of wind?

And don’t you think
the trees themselves, especially those with mossy,
warm caves, begin to think

of the birds that will come — six, a dozen — to sleep
inside their bodies?

And don’t you hear
the goldenrod whispering goodbye,
the everlasting being crowned with the first
tuffets of snow?

The pond
vanishes, and the white field over which
the fox runs so quickly brings out
its blue shadows. And the wind pumps its
bellows. And at evening especially,
the piled firewood shifts a little,
longing to be on its way.
