Saturday Walk on Monday

 Thank goodness we walked on Saturday morning because the weather got dreary and drizzly and rainy in the afternoon and on Sunday morning it was depressing and rainy again. 

We walked by the Japanese Knotweed~

We found pretty white berries that mom googled and discovered they belonged to the Grey Dogwood Bush~
The Sumac is coming into bloom and making us think that Autumn really is on the way!
We have Chinese Lanterns in our garden at home~
Happy Monday!
Love ya lots♥
Duke

    It's sunny here at the moment, Duke, but the forecast is for rain most of this week. This is great news as the countryside desperately needs it!

    Have a great week!

    Woofs,
    Ollie

    Duke it's kind of tough being a puppy dog and wanting to take a walk when it's been such a wet summer. We've done a great job of showing us lots of flowers anyway.

    The flower finds are beautiful but we love the lanterns as Gramma used to grow those and had dried ones in her house. Have a great week!

    We've been noticed the sumac around here are starting their color changes -

    Our overnight temps got in to the 5x - pawsome - showing 64 here now!

    Fall is knocking on the door!

    Duke the gray dogwood bush and berries are quite unique and new to me.
    And the Japanese knot weed wonder how it got that name?

    Oooh, does mum eat the Chinese Lantern fruits? I have to buy physallis from the shop and it is pricey! Japanese Knotweed is highly invasive and a scheduled plant on the UK hit list. Major operation getting rid of it. It's a shame that so many pretty plants in their native habitat become such terrors when moved elsewhere! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
