Friday's Framed Statue.........


The angel withstands all of the different kinds of weather in Iowa but the hostas are ready to shut down.  He does get to come inside during the winter while the hostas' roots regroup for the next spring.

Crowded Sky.........


The fall weather begins and everyday it is a different kind of day.  The clouds above seem to be like scramble eggs as the changing temps and wind blow them into so many shapes.

Eye to Eye......


A little blurry in appearance but the eyes tells it all.
