“Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.”
Psalms 147:1
After a clear start to the morning, a fog rolled in off the river and created a most unusual glow!
The fog continued drifting west, diffusing the light to create a beautiful start to our day.
The leaning tower of pumpkin!
Maybe another member of the eat more chicken movement!
This is our prettiest and most favorite “pumpkin”.
The Sunshine Ligustrum refuses to be only a summer standout as it now takes on autumn gold!
We think everybody was “under the boardwalk”. Such a nice day to have this all to yourself for a few minutes.
Now this is the way to get ready for winter. The cows next door are happy to see this!
The Yellowstone Lake Hotel is over 125 years old and has seen countless visitors including U S Presidents!
Architecture on the Coosa! We never tire of the beauty along the river.
” Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever”.
Hebrews 13:8

Cotton bolls for floral arrangements are in fashion I read. Guessing you don’t have to go far to find them.
Our town is surrounded by cows, it’s dairy country (also timber country) here. Hay is much in demand for areas affected by drought, further out. That has pushed the price up.
Thank you Cath. We have three pastures that are cut for hay, but no cows. Cotton is an abundant crop, and it is so pretty in the fields.
Do you have to remove weeds that can poison stock, or do the tenants do that?
The farmer who cuts the hay is responsible for that.
My flower garden is blooming at present as Spring here, but it’s weed time too!
Cath, I know your flowers are beautiful!
Your early morning photos with the fog and your sweet little “punkin” are among my favorites this week. I’m so thrilled it’s cool, I’m doing the Happy Dance! It took me 4 weeks of 12 hour days, but I finally got my MIL packed, moved from FL, unpacked, and in her new independent living apartment. I’m going to do some serious fall cleanout at my own home now and get rid of excess “stuff”! Blessed Sunday, Pam.
Good morning Roxanne. I know you have been so busy packing up your MIL and moving her from FL. Wishing you a beautiful Sunday and blessings for your day!
Beautiful pictures Pam. The mist from the river is so pretty. Surreal. Just how far do you live from the river? Miss Ella Mae is very picturesque and I love seeing her. The pictures you share with us are going to be wonderful to look back on in years to come. Now that cotton field is a blessing to the farmer that planted it and another one because I don’t have to,pick it.
The back corner of our property is about 300 yards from the river. Thank you for your sweet comments about our Ella Mae! Happy Sunday, Alice!
That early morning fog with sun dappling through…..amazing. Ella Mae is looking so grown up – not a toddler anymore. Love her little cold shoulder top. 🙂
Thank you Rita! Ella Mae is so much fun. Wishing you a beautiful Sunday!
Thank you Rita, have a wonderful week!
Good Sunday morning, Pam. Again, such beautiful photos for us to enjoy. Oh, how I love the fog, and the cotton fields. Gorgeous! And, you know my favorite, is precious Ella Mae – she is growing too quickly. She is a doll and so fashionable. Wishing you and your family a joy filled day and week ahead! Blessings, Pam.
Thank you dear friend. Have a blessed Sunday and a beauty-filled week. Thank you for your sweet comments about our girl!
I know I say this every Sunday, but your photos are stunning Pam! I never tire of the Coosa river scenes, nature at her finest! Ella Mae is indeed the prettiest pumpkin!
Jenna
Thank you dear Jenna. I love taking pictures of our pumpkin!
I agree with Jenna,stunning pictures…Our sweet princess always makes me smile!Blessings,dear friends!Thanks for sharing!
Thank you dear Maristella!
Finding beauty in all things is such a gift and I do appreciate that you pay attention to all that is around you. Of course, it’s easy to see beauty in Sweet Ella Mae.
Thank you Linda. I do try to pay attention!
Thank you for sharing the beautiful photos. It made me feel as if I was taking a mini vacation!
Thank you Mary, I am so glad you enjoyed!
Such pretty photographs for a beautiful Sunday! Hope your day is blessed, sweet friend!!!
Thank you Shannon, wishing you a blessed week!
Such beauty for us to enjoy Pam. I love seeing the barn stocked with hay, the calf, the cotton fields, the Coosa River..all of it. Ella Mae is just so beautiful with those long eyelashes and sweet smile. She seems so grown up. Cherish every moment with her. I remember you said once if we don’t see beauty all around us, we just aren’t paying attention. Coming home from church Bob was talking about our beautiful mountains and I quoted you for the zillionth time. Every post is a masterpiece. We are grateful for you.
Dianne, you are so sweet. You are a blessing and a treasure to me sweet friend!
A serene Sunday enjoying these beautiful landscapes. Nature gives us beautiful images, but if there is not a good photographer who captures them, they would not exist for those of us who are not present.
Ella Mae is a very beautiful girl and every day is more …
Blessings for everyone on this beautiful Sunday
Dolores
Queridos Dolores, gracias por tus dulces y alentadoras palabras. Nuestra Ella Mae está creciendo demasiado rápido. Me encantan los días que paso con ella. Nuestras hojas están empezando a girar un poco, y el clima se está volviendo un poco más fresco. Bendiciones y abrazos, Pam
Ella Mae looks adorable. She is so pretty and looks so sweet.
Love how you captured the fog and light. Special times to enjoy God’s creation. The cotton field and sunset is dreamy and nostalgic.
Your Sunshine Lagustrums are stunning.
Isn’t our weather so changeable? Yesterday, I was freezing at the Country Living Fair. Today it is so mild!
Have a great week.
Good morning Bonnie. Our weather does change so fast. We attended a wedding yesterday afternoon and it was 77 degrees and a perfect autumn day with bright blue skies. Have a wonderful Monday!
Hello Pam and Butch!! Happy fall to you both ~ love this week’s photographs! God has created some truly beautiful places and creatures in this world. <3 Enjoy fall where you are!!
Blessings to you,
Barb 🙂
Such lovely photos, Pam, each telling a whole story. And you did make the most of that unusual light.

Thank you Amalia❤️
I’m only a few days behind in visiting my favorite blogs, but seeing these beautiful pictures and feeling your gratitude for God’s amazing creation, was worth the wait. And that precious little face for the best.
Thank you dear Libby!
Your grand daughter is a doll! Thanks for sharing for Home Sweet Home!
