Rolling hills, farm buildings

A little wine-tasting tent stood in the drizzle, on the edge of a parking lot in Millersburg.

More on Boundaries

The Rt Reverend Anthony Footit, in "Solomon's Seal," from A Gospel of Wildflowers, 2006, p. 50:

Law places boundaries on behaviour. On the sixth Sunday of Easter it is still customary in some parishes to beat the bounds--to process around the boundaries, and at the same time ask God's blessing on the seeds sown in fields and gardens. Hedges and walls and boundaries help to prevent trespass and acquisitiveness--wanting more than we need. "The law does not change the heart, but it does restrain the heartless" (Martin Luther King).

(The well-known British artist Pat Albeck illustrated Reverend Footit's essays with lovely floral watercolors.)

Koosje Koene's Fall Feast, Re-visited

Koosje has once again posted her autumn pattern video. (My sketches lose resolution in translation through the Blogger app.)

Note: I think the pots toward the left on the bottom were drawn from life, large urns outside the school entrance.
