“It was November - the month of crimson sunsets, parting birds, deep, sad hymns of the sea, passionate wind-songs in the pines.” Lucy Maud Montgomery’s pen brings each month to life like no other. Now, this month does mean the wrapping up of the fall content here at Idlewild Cottage. We’ll share together in one more episode next week, and then break until the winter season arrives. For now, as we step cozily into November, we’ll continue to take our cues from Maud, in the form of Anne Shirley. Following our beloved heroine through several November scenes, we’ll discover that - true to form - she has a knack for seeking out beauty wherever she goes.
