THOUGHTS of OCTOBER ..... BY INVITATION .....

Our 'By Invitation' subject this month is Thoughts of October.  I'm afraid that no humorous connotations of this particular month sprung to mind so, it's just pretty pictures of a time of year that is particularly close to my heart as our son and daughter-in-law got married in October 2008 and was the most wonderful day and a beautiful time of year to get married. 

..... a time for fairytale seed heads .....

..... for dewy spiders webs .....

..... for dried Hydrangeas ....

..... for browns and beige's .....

..... for brogues ..... 

..... for steaming hot coffee .....

..... for sweeping leaves .....

.... and for morning mists ....

.... and for the new series of Downton Abbey .....

Enjoy the month of October and please pop over to Marsha to read the other participants thoughts.
