Here's an oldie from Season 3. This was meant to be post #600.

"Two and two are four; Four and four are eight; Eight and eight are sixteen; Sixteen and sixteen are thirty two

Inchworm, inchworm, measuring the marigolds; You and your arithmetic, you'll probably go far

Inchworm, inchworm, measuring the marigolds; Seems to me you'd stop and see, how beautiful they are!"

Prelude

“Ah, September! You are the doorway to the season that awakens my soul... but I must confess  that I love you only because you are a prelude to my beloved October.” - Peggy Toney Horton

What a perfect September day! The air is crisp and the leaves are just hinting at the spectacular autumn to come. My house is clean, my dog is groomed, there's a big pot of chili on the stove, and the Packers are playing the Bears in the season opener. I don't want to wish the days away, but bring on autumn!
