So, credit where credit’s due. Sara DID send me doors for last week, but my brain didn’t perceive what my eyes saw. As we used to say in mass, “My bad, my bad, my most grievous bad.”

ANYWAY, here are some door pictures she took at Yew Dell Botanical Gardens in Crestwood, Kentucky. There will be more.

Thursday doors is under the direction of Dan Antion, photographer extraordinaire and critter daddy. Visit his site, enjoy his wonderful photographs, follow his directions, and enter a world of doors.

Ah, autumn in Indiana — or Kentucky, for that matter — and our thoughts naturally turn to apples. Caramel apple cider? Really? Sara knows doors AND apples!

  She’s a keeper, all right. As my mother would have said, “She’s a quality daughter.”

Great doors, and I love the pictures of the cider mill. A very important process, making cider.

  Indeed. Sara has put me onto hard cider. My favorite is Cider Boys’ peach cider (known, in our house, as Peachy Boys). Sara prefers Cider Boys’ caramel apple cider.
