Tiny pond, early autumn


Tiny pond, early autumn
Originally uploaded by betsythedevine

Swedish September is colder than New England’s but has (until September 21) longer days–and its gardens still glow.

Late English roses, sweet-smelling Nicotiana.

Old-fashioned apple trees dropping small ruddy-streaked fruit.

Local Swedish berries with new shapes and colors and tastes.

I will be in Sweden now until December, so I look forward to living in depth a whole new kind of autumn.

    Thanks–though right now it’s pretty cold and wet and dark, I do plan to get back to enjoying things as soon as possible!
