“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life…
…for God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.”
John 3:16-17
Morning dew on our Japanese Maple!
It was a cold and windy October morning as we drove over Independence Pass!
The Mountain Chalet is one of the few remaining old-time ski lodges in Aspen. It was opened in 1954. We did not stay here, but I thought it was quaint.
Our girl in the cotton patch!
After cotton is harvested, it is converted into modules (compressed) to be hauled to the gin.
A red barn… Simple and Southern!
Always our favorite appetizer at Highlands Bar and Grill… stone ground baked grits with country prosciutto, mushrooms, and thyme!
Coral Bark Maple is showing fall leaf color and its unusual coral bark!
A stalk of Brussels sprouts, anyone?
Yesterday there was heavy fog that blanketed our Appalachian Foothills for several hours after daybreak.
I was glad when they said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
Psalm 122:1

I can see that you are savoring every moment of this Autumn color. So am I and this was perfect first thing this morning. I love the red barn. Ella Mae is dressed so perfect for her picture in the cotton patch. She is such a doll. God has blessed us with these children in our lives. All of your posts this week have been so meaningful to us. God Bless.
Thanks you Dianne…you are an inspiration! Blessings~
That picture of Ella – so sweet! We had the same fog yesterday, and I also snapped a picture on our morning walk. I went to an estate sale and bought a watercolor much like your simple red barn….but with snow on the ground. 🙂
Happy Sunday, Pam!
Thanks so much, have a beautiful day!
The colorful maple leaves are the best advertisement for autumn.

Yes maples provide beautiful color!
Pam: Such glorious photos. I was especially taken with the Coral Bark Maple. It is new to me and is lovely. Once again, Miss Ella steals the show – she is absolutely precious. I know she makes every day special for you and your family.
Have a beautiful day, Pam !
Sandra, the coral bark was new to us when we planted it! When all the leaves fall off the color is so pretty!
Beautiful photos for a blessed Sunday,but Ela Mae photo is the best,”hors concurs”!
Thank you so much Maristella!
Each photo is gorgeous Pam! I love those Brussels sprout stalks that TJs gets every fall, and did you get one of their Almond Kringles? I am going back to get some more to stash in the freezer, they are so good!! Ella Mae in the cotton field is priceless…
Jenna
No, but I must get some Almond Kringles!
Hi Pam, spectacular Japanese maple fall dress. In these latitudes the trees are dressed in spring, it has rained a quarter of an hour and nothing more …
Ella Mae another precious little cotton, she is very beautiful. The photo of Mountain Chalet is very beautiful.
And I highlight the photo of the Brussels sprouts because it has interested me to see them in their trunk. The truth is that I never thought that they were linked to a common trunk … Very interesting.
Thanks for sharing the beautiful things in life.

Dolores, estamos en el pico del otoño … ¡pronto las hojas se caerán de los árboles y todo se verá desnudo! ¡Estamos disfrutando tanto de Ella Mae mientras ella habla constantemente! ¡Te deseo una hermosa semana! Abrazos ~
Thanks for the beautiful post. The photos are beautiful. Love the brussel sprouts, and they’re in season! Any great recipes out there?
Thank you Elizabeth, I simply roast them with a little extra virgin olive oil and sea salt!
Pam, I love all your beautiful Photos especially the one of Ella Mae. My sweet Mother loves Brussels Sprouts but I haven’t developed a taste for them.
Thank you Brenda, I finally created a taste for them a few years ago!
Beautiful fall colors – the Japanese maple, really pretty!
Your grand-daughter is a perfect little doll!
Thank you my sweet friend!
The fall foliage is beautiful! You planned your garden so well to have fall foliage .
Ella Mae is adorable in the cotton field.
I think the grits appetizer would be one I liked also.
Brussel sprouts from the stalk seem to taste fresher and have a richer taste.
Hope you had a great Sunday!
Thanks so much Bonnie, you would love the grits! I finally created a taste fro Brussel sprouts, I enjoy them roasted!
All beautiful but that photo of your girl in the cotton patch is spectacular.
Oh, Jeanie we are so in love with our girl!
Your baby girl is adorable and I never tire of seeing pictures of her.
Thank you Sandra!
Always love this Pam! Your little grand in the cotton patch is so sweet!! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Thank you Jann!
Oh my! Grits never looked so good. Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home.
Sherry, the grits are amazing!
