We're at the Crossroads

Well, yes. A crossroad between fall and summer. Most have left behind the cottage activities and the lazy days behind. The sun has begun its Autumnal Solstice and there is less warmth in the rays as the sun's axis changes. Not that we feel the cool temperatures of fall. Yet.

One of the last beautiful days to have lunch outdoors!

The sign of fall are here, but the temperatures have been warm and lovely.


We passed the memorial to the three young men who died in Minette after drinking and driving.

We drove to Rosseau to have a treat. To eat at Crossroads. Julie (home with the kids today!) and Richard (see below, chatting with customers), our owners and chefs, bought the place and are getting rave reviews and good press. Such a delightful view.

Our server, Meredith, had a great afternoon of it.

Working, but being able to serve outdoors on such a great day.

A fine day, with a fine Chardonnay in hand, I watched the boats in the bay.


As we drove home, hubby apparently wasn't driving quickly enough. He pulled over to let the maniacs pass by. A couple of sports cars and motorcycles. It is not a road that allows for much speed, with winding turns and a series of hills.

We chose to enjoy the colours of the trees, and appreciate the fine beauty of the scenery.
