Across the meadow to Hogwarts.
Alnwick Castle, home of the Duke of Northumberland. This famous castle has been used for various locations by film and tv companies but is mostly famous for being Hogwarts, the school attended by Harry Potter.
The River Aln meanders through the estate and it's a lovely peaceful walk across the meadow towards to castle.
Happy Fence Friday - HFF :))

"Climate change isn’t an ‘issue’ to add to the list of things to worry about, next to health care and taxes. It is a civilizational wake-up call. A powerful message — spoken in the language of fires, floods, droughts, and extinctions — telling us that we need an entirely new economic model and a new way of sharing this planet. Telling us we need to evolve."
(Naomi Klein)
A shot from La Grange, Texas. So different from the hill country where I live. But, still pretty in its own way.
I signed up with Airbnb and I have my first people coming on Friday. However, I have discovered a down side to Airbnb. They report all your income to the IRS..;( I didn't see that coming. So, I'm still listing room mate wanted in the newspapers..:).

This is advertisement for a resort here in Wimberley, Texas. As I've said before, there are a lot of creative people in this town. I did some volunteer photography last night for the Waller Creek group. They had an event on the creek. I'm going to post some of the shots here during the week.
I've noticed, that every time I drop a blueberry or a grape on the kitchen floor, it rolls under the refrigerator or the stove. So, since it happens every time, I decided it must be one of those universal rules that aren't written down, but we all know they exist. Maybe, some one should be writing them down. That way we'll have a list and when something happens we can just say, "Oh, that's a rule, don't you know."
... with happy survivors of the recent cold nights at our pear tree!
Wishing you a safe and healthy Friday!

I spotted this place as we were pulling out of the Marina in Port Aransas. It didn't look very rustic so I decided to rough it up some..;) Back to work tomorrow..:(
This isn't that great of an image. I took it with my phone. This is what I saw when I pulled into my work Tuesday. It's deer hunting season around here so the deer are staying close to buildings..;)

"The political decision-makers who (will) meet at COP26 in Glasgow are urgently summoned to provide effective responses to the present ecological crisis and in this way to offer concrete hope to future generations...
Moments of difficulty like these also present opportunities, opportunities that we must not waste. We can confront these crises by retreating into isolationism, protectionism and exploitation. Or we can see in them a real chance for change, a genuine moment of conversion, and not simply in a spiritual sense."
(Pope Francis)
For the groups Cosas de casa...Jagged
and Flickr Friday...Leaves
How silently they tumble down
And come to rest upon the ground
To lay a carpet, rich and rare,
Beneath the trees without a care,
Content to sleep, their work well done,
Colours gleaming in the sun.
