Twinkling Frost and Mooning You ?

It was an amazing FROSTY morning this morning .. I couldn't believe my eyes when it had just been hot and muggy .. talk about menopausal weather ?
I loved it though .. this is my true "me" time of year coming up ... and now with such a swing with the temps the leaves will start changing and hopefully I will get some great vivid pictures of our Ontario Autumn.
In the mean time .. get a load of the twinkling frost dimples on my neighbor's roof !
The moon was a treat as well .. even though I haven't been able to capture the "harvest" moon with that yellow glow at night .. at least I caught a morning one.... BIG sigh !
The frost did not reach the garden yet .. it was what I call a high frost .. roof top frost .. so garden is safe for a few nights yet ?
Good thing since I have a load of garden chores to do yet. BIG groan !
One more shot at the moon because I am a moon freak and it just has to be this way to finish the post .. OK !!

It has been chilly here at night too. No frost yet. I am not ready for frost either. It is beautiful on the neighbors house though.

Joy,

We are bordering on a frost also, sweet potato vine succumbed but everything else looks good. I put out many of my fall decorations in the house today, no halloween yet!

I can't believe it's this time already...I know you look forward to Halloween all year, but couldn't we have a little more summer? Lol ;). I LOVE the white owl pumpkins in your sidebar, I might have to try something like that this year, so adorable!! Your garden still looks fab! :O)

Hey there Lisa girl .. I think we may have a wee bit more frost this morning too .. it is too dark out yet to see but I will be watching !

Yup Eileen my potato vine wilted with the cold too .. but the coleus is still fine as are the fuschia .. I bought a net bag of "Baby Boo" little white pumpkins yesterday .. couldn't help myself ? LOL

Thanks Rebecca girl : ) I only wish we would have a proper Spring .. then I wouldn't mind summer so much ? I left a question about that beautiful sun garden art you have .. I love it, want to find something like it myself too !

Frost, no no no no no no. But yes, suddenly it's cold outside.

What are we to do with the shorts, and summer quilts, I don't like this change.

Beautiful shots, love them.

Your yard is so pretty, and gorgeous moon shots.
Our mornings and evenings have a definite chill here too. I don't think we will have frost for awhile though!

I can't believe you've had frost yet. Glad it didn't get the garden. It's too early!! We haven't been that cold yet but it has been dipping into the 40's at night. Feels chilly after so many days in the 90's.
You are the best at moon photos. These are GREAT!

Joan thank you very much : ) I have the front garden to sort out so that has been missing from my shots until it is decent ? LOL .. Yes the "cold" clear air is happening as a bit of a tease ! haha

Kathleen girl thank you : )
I was VERY surprised to see the frosted roofs too! but relieved to be out of that hot muggy air thankfully .. roll on Autumn!
