I was out with the dogs the other morning admiring our sunrise when what did I see?
A spider on a web also admiring the sunset!!
Another sign of autumn is that I am starting my gig as a volunteer reading tutor. I’ve already met the young person I’ll be working with and am looking forward to helping them learn to read.
Another sign of autumn is that an organization I am with, the Tulsa Urban Wilderness Coalition has restarted our trail maintenance projects. It’s too hot in the summer!! Our latest project which we co-hosted with another organization had over fifty people working on various projects on Turkey Mountain.
I love autumn, it goes on for months here in northeast Oklahoma.
I’m linking with Skywatch Friday





…that’s one rocky trail! I wish you an Outstanding October.
Love the sunrise photo.
Don’t love the spider!
I think it’s great that you volunteer as a reading tutor. My daughter teaches kids who have physical and/or emotional issues and my granddaughter teaches music. They both love their jobs.
The view from the trail is amazing!
That’s one huge spider!! Beautiful sunset.
Haha … love the thought of a spider enjoying the sunset. Reading is everything! Congratulations on being a tutor and gifting others with this more important of skills.
Beautiful sunrise – a great way to start the day.
I love the spider!! (And the candy corn pumpkin!)

Kudos to you for your work with the wilderness group. Love the spider photo!!
Nice sunrise! The spiders not a problem as long as you see it before you run into the spiderweb.
Amazing sunrise pic. Spider pic Superb.
Great post.
Love the way you balance volunteering with enjoying the small wonders around you.
Pretty sunrise and neat capture of the spider.
It is nice you volunteer on the trails and are a tutor.
Take care, enjoy your day and happy weekend.
beautiful sunrise.
It’s still hot here in the Tampa Bay area, but cooler in the mornings and evenings. I’m a snowbird volunteer at the Florida Botanical Garden, but haven’t started yet. Like you said, it’s been way too hot!
Enjoy the fall weather!
I love thinking about other life forms on our planet admiring sunsets. If the spider really was doing that, it wouldn’t surprise me. Kudos for being a reading tutor. I have thought on and off about doing that as I love reading and want to share that love with others.
How wonderful to devote free time in service to the community. I have also started this year an unpaid gig hanging out with mostly senior kitties.
Worth a Thousand Words
That’s so great that you help young people learn to read. It opens the world to them.
Lovely autumn… it’s golden October. A wonderful time indeed. But I fear the spider.
Have a good week ahead.
Nice spider shot! 🙂
