Since my little camera is cooperating once again, I thought I'd post first, this photo I just took of my front yard. The leaves are covering most of the front, and most of my driveway as well, even though there are still plenty of leaves left on the trees.
And in the field, wild turkeys are gobblin'. Since, like the deer, the turkeys show up in my field regularly these days, my granddaughters will enjoy seeing them.
Deer season ends Sunday, thank goodness. Peace and quiet will return to the woods. Until the girls get here , and fill the woods with whooping and laughter.
Have a great weekend, everyone!

Good Morning Renie,
Burrrrrr!!!! It is a cold morning here. It is 32 degrees right now. I am sitting here visiting and drinking my coffee. My computer is right by my front door and I feel a little draft. Gonna have to fix it before too long. Those pictures are beautiful. Now, are you going to get you a turkey for your Thanksgiving Dinner? LOL I know you are anxiously awaiting for your family to get there. I hope you all will have a great time together and don't eat too much. Well I've got some more visiting to do, so take care and have a great Friday and stay warm. God Bless You.
Hugs,

Hi Renie,
Wow, you've really warmed up to your camera! Lovely new post ;-) I'm so glad your family will be here soon. I know you'll enjoy their company!
Smiles,

Great pics, Renie!
I hope you have a great weekend and a glorious holiday with your family and friends.
Hi Michele,
Well, my camera and I have a love/hate relationship, really. She has a mind of her own!
Thanks so much for stopping by. I am looking forward to my company next week.
Take care.
Renie
Hi Grandy,
Yes, I'm pretty excited and can't wait until they get here. I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. As you can see, I'll need lots of help with raking!
Thanks for visiting. Have a great weekend.
Renie
The leaves remind me of our childhood home that had four enormous oak trees on the lot, so raking leaves was a chore. We had great piles and jumped it them. Bac then my father burned the leaves (not allowed these days. He was known as firebug Robinson as he was never happy unless he had a little fire going.
The introduced wild turkeys into southern Ontario with outstanding success. There is a hunting season and they have spread far and wide. within 30 miles of us in the North.
I only saw the turkey's wild in North Carolina.
Hi Philip,
Have lots of oak trees around here, and hickory trees, so there are tons of leaves. I used to do a lot of raking myself, but am getting too old to do it all, anymore. Of course, we only rake the yard area and around the house, the rest is left to decompose as nature meant it to.
We aren't allowed to burn leaves either, as most of the land around here is forest land. We don't want any fires to get out of hand.
Turkeys are plentiful around here, and they come to visit, along with the deer. We don't hunt them, but we do enjoy watching them.
Thanks so much for visiting. I do appreciate it!
Renie
Ms. Renie, Wanted to check in on you. I know you are now counting the days and hours till your family arrives. I hope that you all have a wonderful time and fellowship. There is nothing like having all your family gathered around your table whether you are enjoying a meal or just visiting and recalling wonderful memories. Hope you and yours have a blessed day.
Laura
Dear Laura,
How sweet of you to visit again. Yes, I'm counting the days, and also getting things ready. Not only will my family be here, but a close friend who has no family, and lost her husband 3 years ago. She always spends Thanksgiving with us as well. We will all be together being thankful and enjoying a wonderful thanksgiving in our wonderful country!
I know having JB home is such a blessing for you, after all the waiting. Thank you for checking on me. That is so thoughtful and kind. God bless you and your wonderful family!
Hugs,
Renie
Hi Renie,
That carpet of leaves is beautiful. Sort of reminds me of candy corn colors. Love the turkeys too. We see them at our sons.
Hope you have a wonderful family Thanksgiving!

Hi Susie,
Thank you kindly for the nice comment and Thanksgiving wishes. Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving with your loved ones.
Blessings,
Renie
Renie,
If Brandon and Jordan saw your front yard they would want to come for a visit. The boys love raking leaves, but there's one catch. They want to jump and roll in them once they have them in a pile.
I'm so glad your family is coming for a visit. Have a great time with them.
Blessings for a great Thanksgiving.
Mary
What a beautiful place you have there! I just love this time of year. The leaves are so pretty. And how neat that you have some real turkeys! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family!
Yes, I do like having the sitemeter. It just gives you an idea where people are from that are reading!
Hi Mary,
Send the boys right over, I need lots of help with the raking of leaves. LOL.
Thank you for the nice Thanksgiving wishes and for visiting. Have a great weekend!
Blessings,
Renie

Wonderful leaf photo. Beautiful. I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving, but where I'm at looks like they skipped that and went straight to Christmas.
I posted a photo of deer today, at least my version. The only one's I could get. And, some snow on my personal blog.
I clicked on your link from Tossing the Pebbles.
Hi Audrey,
I'm tickled pink about your award! I will have to post it tomorrow because my son came, and we're going to the Thanksgiving Buffet at my church this eveniong. No time for anything today. But I'm honored to get the award, and will display it proudly.
Hugs,

Hi there, I'm pleased you came to visit and post. Thanks so much for the nice compliment on the leaves photo. But there will be a lot to rake!
Same here about the Christmas stuff. It's everywhere already. I guess people shop early for it, and the stores are ready!
Thank you for visiting. I will be over to check out your blog.
Blessings,
Renie
awesome pic,s.have a happy thanksgiving.
Good Evening Renie,
I hope you had a good weekend. I didn't post this weekend. I'm going to wait until tomorrow. I got up with a sinus headache this morning. It has started to ease up some now. I am cooking Thanksgiving dinner for us 4 and my parents and sister are coming to eat with us. I'll post my menu in the next day or so. My girls went with my parents to their Church tonight. They had their Thanksgiving dinner there. My girls brought me some food home. They were thinking about their momma. I'm out visiting friends from my blogroll tonight. Thought I would drop in and check on you. I do hope you will have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING. May God Bless You and Yours. Take care my friend.
Hugs,
Karen H.
Hi Lean,
Just got home from our church's Thanksgiving Buffet. I enjoyed it.
How are you feeling and doing? I hope well. Thank you for the nice comment on the pictures and the Thanksgiving wishes. I'll be over to visit tomorrow.
Blessings,
Renie
Hi Karen,
Sounds like you will have a nice family type Thaksgiving yourself. The weather is so nice, isn't it? But colder for Thanksgiving, the forecast says. I was hoping for nice, mild weather so my granddaughters can spend a lot of time outdoors. Oh, well, Mother Nature has a will of her own.
Thank you for your nice Thanksgiving wishes. I'll be over to visit tomorrow.
Hugs,
Renie

I love the photos of the fallen leaves and wild turkeys. Beautiful!
I'm sure your grandaughters will enjoy seeing them in person. I can well imagine that the sound of their laughter will be happily welcomed. :-)

Dear Tina,
Yes, the girls will enjoy visiting Nana in the country, and I will enjoy having them here.
Thanks so much for the nice comment on the photos. Today, the leaves don't look as pretty anymore, they're just brown and crunchy and there is more of them on the ground! Lol.
Have to pop on over and see what's new in your beautiful neck of the woods. Thank you again!
Hugs,
Renie
how very pretty. Lovely colors.
Thank you, Tina!
