Happy Thanksgiving!

May your Kong be full of peanut butter and a shaft of sunlight warm your spot on the carpet!

Happy Thanksgiving

May you have a gathering of family and friends........

 

And a sunny spot to snooze in after eating.......

 

 

And an unhurried time to reflect and be thankful.......

 

Get up and go shopping?  NOW??  You've got to be kidding.  That's just wrong.  Even a sheep knows today isn't about buying stuff.  Sheeesh.

 

Have a wonderful day at your house.

 

 

 



Frosty Thanksgiving

The last two days were foggy and alternating freezing rain, snow and regular rain.  Today the sky was clear.  Hooray!  It did go below freezing last night, so this morning eveything had a lovely rime of frost on it.

This oak leaf blew in from the woods

A cluster of apple leaves

I love how delicate the bit of wild carrot leaf in the lower right corner looks, and the buttercup leaf in the upper left looks like it's dusted with confectioner's sugar.



Single apple leaf

Notice how each little hair on the devil's paintbrush leaf is outlined in frost. 

We need to remember to give thanks every day - for family and friends of course, but don't forget the blessings we live with every minute:  to see the beauty around us, to breathe deep the cold clean air, to have the bounty of fruit trees and plants and the animals we keep, warm clothes, clean water, medicine when we need it, to be living in a free country.....

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
