Before the First Snowfall, Winter view from the Studio

My view of the Mississippi River from the studio.

The leaves have fallen and soon the river will freeze over.

I love how this view is everchanging with the seasons.

Gabbi visits the Studio

My niece Gabbi came all the way from North Dakota to visit Aunty Nancy in the studio.

"The Sensitive Plant" Percy Byssye Shelly, 1820

I forgot to include this lovely poem that Susan included in my feature at http://www.handmadewave.blogspot.com/

A Sensitive Plant in a garden grew
And the young winds fed it with silver dew
And it opened its fan-like leaves to the right

And closed them beneath the kisses of night.
