October's Party

October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came-
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band."

~~ George Cooper ~~

[jaycee]

Lovely greeting and graphic by MamaBear this morning, Amy. Have a doctor's appt. today so I don't know when I will be on or off Amy's Place. Just a hello this early morning and we sure had fun yesterday.Wishing everyone a Warm, Fuzzy Wednesday. I will be back sometime today!

[GodBlessUSA]

Good Morning :)
This is lovely. Thank you for the October thread, Amy!
Have a great day everyone!

[gardengirl]

Gorgeous, Amy!

Are those aspens? I don’t recognize the bark. LOL Hubby hates it when I do that! I can’t help it! My crowd won’t even stop at a garden center!

What garden center? We don’t see one and you don’t need any more plants!

[Billie]

Good morning - such a lovely way to start the new thread - pretty picture, pretty poem. Fall is definitely in the air - hayfever is in full bloom, and the temperatures have been below 90. Woo Hoo! Started wearing reg'lar long jeans again instead of shorts.

And I LOVE the Fall Colors!

Catch of the Day:

Little Johnny’s at it again..... A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She started her class by saying, ‘Everyone who thinks they’re stupid, stand up!’ After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher said, ‘Do you think you’re stupid, Little Johnny?’ ‘No, ma’am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!’

* * * * * * * * * * *

Little Johnny watched, fascinated, as his mother smoothed cold cream on her face. ‘Why do you do that, mommy?’ he asked. ‘To make myself beautiful,’ said his mother, who then began removing the cream with a tissue. ‘What’s the matter?’ asked Little Johnny. ‘Giving up?’

* * * * * * * * * * *

The math teacher saw that little Johnny wasn’t paying attention in class. She called on him and said,
‘Johnny! What are 2 and 4 and 28 and 44?’ Little Johnny quickly replied, ‘NBC, FOX, ESPN and the Cartoon Network!’

* * * * * * * * * * *

Little Johnny’s kindergarten class was on a field trip to their local police station where they saw pictures tacked to a bulletin board of the 10 most wanted criminals. One of the youngsters pointed to a picture and asked if it really was the photo of a wanted person. ‘Yes,’ said the policeman. ‘The detectives want very badly to capture him.’Little Johnny asked, ‘Why didn’t you keep him when you took his picture ?’

See Ya.

Lovely poem and graphicc!I love autumn...Our leaves will peak about mid November..Some years it seems many just turn brown.
My pink dogwood shows colors early and I am enjoying it.
