Yesterday was overcast, rainy, and cool… perfect weather for enhancing the reflections on the lake at a nearby park.  H and I hiked around the water’s edge, just soaking it all in.

Happy Anniversary!

No, this was NOT our wedding attire (nor do we normally dress this way), but yes, it IS our eleventh wedding anniversary today!

I’m sending out a little bit of golden sunshine today.

H and I spent Saturday in Blue Ridge, Ga.  It’s a lovely little mountain town with shops, tasty eateries and H’s favorite, a train that makes two trips a day into the mountains.  I could tell H was enjoying himself when I heard him sigh, “Ahhhh… the concessions car, chock full of candy.  I love it!”

The excitement was ramping up as the red gypsy queen and her entourage gathered.  I’m sure that Sister S, waiting behind the witch’s mask, was also smiling from ear to ear.

They’re Back!

It’s that time of year again when the pumpkin patch at our church is ready for visitors.

H and I were enjoying a morning walk through the park when we were stopped in our tracks by these stunning fungi.  While they may be typical of woodsy growths, I can’t remember seeing such splendid colors and patterning.

I was apparently a member of a neighborhood gang, but I have successfully blocked all memories of our misadventures.  That’s me in the center with the tights and red headband.  (Sisters S and L were just along for the numbers.)

These vines are being trained to become a wall of greenery someday.  The tendrils look as strong as any rope.
