LOUDOUN COUNTY VA YARD MAINTENANCE. Turning a chore into a landscaping adventure.

EVEN THE YARD TRIMMINGS CAN OFFER A BIT OF LANDSCAPING STYLE AND BEAUTY.

Last week was my landscaping chores included trimming back the shrubs and ornamental grasses in preparation for (eeekk, I don't even want to whisper the word, winter). However, I know it had to be done and we got to it.

TURNING YARD TRIMMINGS INTO LANDSCAPING ACCENTS. I love ornamental grasses. They are quite beautiful and decorative with a certain dominating feature, height. They do, however, have to be cut back in the fall so they grow back healthy and strong in the late spring. So, we got to it. Chop, chop.

Tall Grasses Before Cutting Back.

WAIT! Don't throw those beautiful grasses away. Let's use them.

Tall Grass Cuttings Decorate the Landscaping.

It was simple to accomplish. We just took the grass trimmings, bundled them and tied them to the fence posts. Yes, the "fence" is decorative too.

Use your imagination and create an oasis in your landscaping. This area is a bulb garden which in the Spring will be full of beautiful Tulips and Daffodils. In the meantime, we still have a lovely scene.

LOUDOUN COUNTY VA IN AUTUMN - FALL COLORS and "TAKING THE CHILL OFF"

Signs of Autumn are everywhere in Loudoun County. I'm in Western Loudoun County and hardly a day goes by that I don't drive somewhere.

A must about every other day is a trip to the Post Office to collect mail which, hopefully includes lovely referral checks from the fabulous network of agents and brokers to whom I refer home buyers. Next , of course, would be a stop at the bank to deposit those lovely referral checks.

Where ever I go these days the countryside is spectacular and, although it's a warning that Winter is coming, our Winters are not really that bad with an average daytime high temperature of about 42 Degrees. The Autumn colors have been beautiful this year, probably due to the ample rainfall.

Fall colors in Lovettsville end of October& Lovettsville home built in 1765 is beautiful with the fall colors.

Fall chores for this week include cutting back the Ornamental Grasses and shrubs in my yard. Hopefully, I'll be able to get through next year without investing in more of these lovelies. However, one cannot deny the beauty of blossoming Rhododendron, Azaleas, some recently planted Crepe Myrtle and the many wonderful Tulips and Daffodils. We have all of the trimming schedules for Saturday a.m. after which I'll take the plunge and cut off and drain the outside faucets. For some reason, that always seems so final. Winter is, indeed, coming and things must be done.

FALL BRING CHILLY MORNINGS. Sometimes it's nice to "just take the chill off" with a nice fire.

The bright spot in the Family Room is always a warming fire in the fireplace. Just "take the chill off".

October also brings Halloween and it's always fun to see the imagine used to decorate homes.

Note the "headstones" in this yard and the cobwebs on the shrubs. This home is always fun to watch at holiday times, Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Halloween.
