This scene looks wintry, but it was actually a very pleasant early morning last week…so pleasant Pam was out at sunrise getting photos while I was being lazy! The clouds are usually set aglow with fiery oranges by the rising sun, but this day the clouds reflected the light and the grassy fields were glowing! Much cooler, seasonal temps are predicted here for Thanksgiving. Pam thinks the colder weather adds a nice finishing touch to the holiday festivities. What do you think?READ MORE

“How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights.”
