Taking a Break.


Hi Friends,


I took this photo of the north-east corner of my woods yesterday afternoon, and as you can see, the colors are moseying on in, but there is still a lot of green. It will be another week or two before nature has perfected her pallet in these woods.


I did not have time to do Ruby Tuesday this week. I am getting company Wednesday, so have been busy getting ready. My granddaughter McKenzie has a short school week, and her Dad is bringing her down for a visit. They will be here until Saturday. So I will be taking a break from blogging for a few days. I hope you all have a wonderful week. See you Monday or Tuesday.



Blessings from the woods!

Gosh we are way ahead in Autumn here - our leaves starting changing a month ago and are mostly on the ground now :)

Renie,
Glad you will be getting to spend some time with your son and granddaughter this week. We will be thinking about you and hope you are having fun. We wanted to go on our fall drive this weekend but it does look like it may be another week before the colors change. Have a great time with your family.
Hugs,

Hi Renie,

I got Chicken Soup for the Christian Family Soul from our Village library and read A Refugee Camp Birthday. What can I say but thank God for us you live here in America for people like you and your grandaughter are what makes America great.

A lovely picture. Our trees are colorful now too. Many have lost their leaves already but the golds and reds still hanging on are wonderful.
I pray your rime with your granddaughter is very special.

Renie,

Visitors? So cool! We grannies just need to see the Grands every now and then or our world turns upside down. I'm so glad Mackenzie and her Dad are coming for a visit. Enjoy!

Did you know that our blogs (yours and mine) was featured here:

What a wonderful surprise.

I can hardly wait to see photos of your woods in autumn this year. Ours were spectacular but with all the wind and rain we've had, they are pretty much done.

Blessings for a great weekend.
Mary
