Plume Grass And Such In Southeast Georgia

After a delightful evening repast of baked chicken thighs with 40 Garlic Gravy, well cooked Fordhook Limas lathered in Amish butter and a chilled glass of Sutter Home Zinfandel, we took a short jaunt in the neighborhood to capture some of the beauty of the season. The Fall colors are only starting here in Southeast Georgia. First the Plume Grass graces the countryside with their shimmering canes in the sunshine. We're anxiously awaiting the oranges and yellows will start in earnest. I'm sure there will be more photos to follow in the days to come.

Here's a preview:

I gathered up Jack (front) and Sam.

They "helped" us look for color in the countryside

from their safe position in the back seat.

Our first stop in the search for color where the

high power lines on Scenic Drive near our home.

After the neighbors cleared the planted pine,

the Plume Grass took over in Mill Creek.

I asked my husband to drive by the Aspinwall Cemetery

which was formerly called Old Mill Creek Church Cemetery.

I hadn't seen this old family burial site since the massive clearing.

Sadly it seems that this cemetery is going to disappear

from the lack of care.

Sometimes I almost forget how pretty it is here. The soft cool breezes, cloudless skies and tilted sun makes the days much more pleasant. I hope your day has been as good as ours.
