This is a special weather statement from Kat & Pup:

If you live east of the Mississippi River, get ready for a little nip in the air by the weekend.

We’re keeping an eye on the situation, and will update if necessary.  😺🐶

Now Back to our program


WRAL- Azalea Gardens have two seasons
Spring Azaleas normally bloom
Mid September - October when the Encore Azaleas put on a fall spectacle
As you will see there are many many varieties of flowers not just Azaleas.
No more words needed
except the shadow on the left is guess who?








It is a huge maze of beauty there are even several honey bee hives throughout
I wanted a picture but they have it sitting in an area that doesn't have a path... one is in the
photo below back in the shade on the right
the other is on the left under the trees.







This is such a popular place to visit they recently added a
Garden restroom..sign was in the shade.
It is basically a hole in the wall but very clean and has what is needed.
LOL


While we were having breakfast on October 24, 2019
we heard the International Space Station was supposed to fly over Raleigh starting at
 6:58 am  duration~6 minutes I grabbed my iPad 
AND we saw it
Look just over the pine tree on the right at about 12 o’clock the finger is pointing to it too.





Lastly, I'm sharing the lovely fall sun coming thru the tree limbs and leaves
over the office skylight.It was breezy the leaves were doing the
hokey pokey!!

  1. Growing up, we always had azaleas. There was only a very small window when they all were in bloom at once. All the kids were called into action walking around the garden while my dad filmed it on the old 8mm camera.

    Glad you had the finger pointing to the ISS....so many dots on the computer screen made it difficult to see which was the station....LOL!

  6. Gorgeous Azaleas and amazing you caught the ISS on camera! Single digit windchills gotta be pretty cold in an RV. Crank up the heater! Those two little heads staring out the window are adorable!

  7. It still looks real warm and summer like in your neck of the woods. We have snow this morning, but we love winter, so not a problem for us.

    Happy weekend.

  9. The azaleas are beautiful, and how nice that they bloom twice. Ours usually start to flower just as we go on holiday and are well past their best when we get back.

  23. The gardens are so beautiful - looks like a wonderful place to wander. Also looks like the "MOVING HOUSE" pup, cat and family are heading to an interesting place next - New Mexico! No doubt they will enjoy it just as they have the rest of their trip so far.
