It's no secret that I am so happy to be having my first fall here in five years. As I've been watching the vines crawl over and up the front of the Chatette, I've been thinking "it never did that before!" When in fact, it has, but I just wasn't here to see it. I went back to look at the photos of the vine that Evelyn sent to me last fall, et voila! It has done that before. The difference is that I wasn't here, so the shutters were closed instead of open.
I have just one spot of bright and brilliant red at the moment. It seems even more special and pretty in this very moment! But, the rest of the red is on its way!
If you take a peek here, and then look at Evelyn's shots below; I think you'll get the picture!
I just can't get over that red! We're not there yet, but it's easy to see it's coming. It was fun to look back to Evelyn's shots because I can also see that the vine was making it's way to the tunnel last year. This year it's there and finding its way inside a bit, so I'm looking forward to what we're going to look like soon.
For now, it's petit a petit. Each step along the way is as pretty as the next. It teaches me to enjoy them moment and each tiny step along the way! What a difference just one piece to a puzzle can make...here, the difference between an open or closed shutter!
Huge Merci encore, to Evelyn for always keeping me up on what was going on around here at the Chatette and in the garden when I wasn't here to see it.
Maybe I'm the "Just One!"
Happy Sunday!
