Dangerous Beauty

Good Morning!  And, Happy Friday - TGIF


A chilly start to the day here in Eastern PA.  Last night was chilly too.  Fletch and Colin had a fire going in the pit after dinner...I would run out for a minute or two, but it was too cold for me to stay out there long.


Today's title - Dangerous Beauty - comes from the picture I'll show:




Cool, huh?  This is a hornets nest that Fletch cut out of the neighbor's hedge.  I think it's fairly large, but Fletch says not so much.  Anyway,, there is beauty in it...but thank goodness no hornets present when Fletch went at it.  During the summer they were swarming around (especially when Fletch would mow the lawn), but now that it's cold and frosty he was able to extricate it.  I love all the swirls you can see.


What are you all up to this weekend?  I've got major/massive cleaning to be done.  Fletch is doing some touch-up painting in some rooms, but I intend to corral him into helping with the cleaning.  And we have to grocery shop (hopefully Colin & Mailing will let me know what vegetable[s] they want me to fix).  I'll make the cranberry chutney this weekend.  Oh, and of course, there is laundry needing to be done.  Oy!  The chores don't seem to end.  I finally get everything done and it's time to start all over again - lol.


Did you all see that MDK's latest Field Guide is out?  It looks great...I'm off to order it right now.


Enjoy the weekend!
