Skelly's Market outside of Janesville was just starting to get their maze and pumpkin patch ready for some good clean outdoor weekend family fun, but they had crisp sour apples bagged and ready for sampling. My favorite though was all the autumn tchotches they had on display.
Funny how such a colorful season looks so rich in black and white.

You know I like Fall the best of any of the seasons.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words.
I love it too, Yogi, kind of ties with spring for me but seems to last longer. I talk about my dad all the time, I think he'd like that.
DeleteA lot of stuff :) Well, Christmas is the season of abundant decorations :)
ReplyDeleteEek, don't say that, it's still summer. I'm getting used to all the Halloween decorations early and a friend explained that amateur haunters are looking for things in the summer, but Christmas, no.
DeleteBeautiful post.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the real beauty of the season, Robert.
DeleteLovely decorations!
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to start my Halloween decorations early, but then I'd be admitting it's almost autumn.
DeleteDon't go into any corn mazes Jeanna -- I'm afraid you'd never come out (I got lost in a hedge maze once, so I would never go into a corn one alone, unless i had my GPS)....
ReplyDeleteI am always surprised at how good black and white pictures can be! This one is great. You are way ahead of us -- our corn is still at peak season..... but of course Halloween decorations are up in the stores. ... even though we're having another hot summer week, in the 90s and smoky -- I am feeling sorry for the kids (and teachers) having to start school Tuesday.
I'd only go in with a golf cart and GPS and even then I'd need snacks. And it looked like several football fields worth of corn too so I do NOT think so. It seems like a good opportunity for haggard parents to be free of their kids for awhile though. A few of my cousins and a friend got lost in one in Wausau when I'd decided to stay home with the dogs. I couldn't stop laughing when they got back late and mad. A hedge maze, is that like a hedge witch and couldn't you see over it?? Hahahaa. I saw a corn stand today but am after the gold standard of corn if there's any left. In the 90s, holy shite, froze my duppa off today swimming outside.
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanna, you've gone all autumnal over there already! I like the display and it does look good in black and white. I'm surprised the chap didn't end up with teeth marks in his arm, which probably says more about me than you ever need to know! I'm guessing corn is a really big thing where you are!

There have been signs creeping up on us, I noticed a tree turning in the background of a photo and seems like fall got the jump on us. You still have to look for it though, but it will come soon enough. The stores, however, always have to jump ahead.
DeleteLoving the B&W shot. Lots of character. Nothing like fresh corn on the cob in my opinion! #MySundayPhoto
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I used the kernel stripper on these because it tasted much better stripped off. Will miss it soon I'm sure. I agree, but it should be fresh and good and this wasn't really.
DeleteI love the first B&W photo, it works so well
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
A lot about fall screams b&w to me, Darren.
DeleteIt all looks very autumnal. Raining here today and I think our first leaves will fall.
ReplyDeleteWas pretty summery yesterday so I'm so happy for the clouds today. Hoping they'll part before I head off to Beatle Fest today though, Fiona.
DeleteI love the black and white photos there is a lot of detail in them #mysundayphoto
ReplyDeleteI love black and whites too, they seem to do something special with light and reminds me of when that's all I took.
DeleteIt's a wonderful bric-a-brac, in the first picture. Great view. Have a nice week.
ReplyDeleteI find all the knick knacks somehow comforting.
