Sandy and fall chores

As we watch the east coast face hurricane Sandy, here at home we did the last of the Fall clean up chores. The sunshade is off the patio so the sun will shine all winter into the house. The pool is shut down and put up for the winter. One last mowing of the grass in front and the winter bird feeder has been set up in its prime viewing location. I would much rather be doing these little chores than thinking about evacuations, boarding up windows, sandbags and emergency supplies. I took some quick photos of things that caught my eye, such as the confused daffodils, Superdude mowing, and the mums. Hope you are safe, pray for those in the path of the hurricane and stop and look around at the beauty outside if you can.
