LOOKS LIKE FALL IS COMING ... SO QUICKLY ...

 I couldn't believe what I saw when I looked out Dave's office window at our side yard.

The Sweet Gum tree is beginning to be dressed in its Fall gown.

What happened to Summer?  We are finally getting some Summer temps this week.  The weather people say it will be in the mid 90's for the next 7 days.  At least we don't have the humidity like the south does.  I'm "wilt-ie" enough as it is..😅😜


I am fascinated by this red leaf just doing its thing on the tree trunk and the shadows playing on the bark.



Yes, Fall is definitely on its way ! 


I just want to thank you for all the prayers and concern for Steve's business partner.

He is at camp with Steve this final week.  Mark is taking it easy but he is so happy to be doing what he loves to do, even though his voice is weak and rough from the 4 days of intubation.  It really is a God miracle that he is alive.  The doctors didn't think he was going to make it.  I'm still praying he won't overdo things.

God is good and this is a real testimony to all who know him.

Always be Grateful.

Always be Kind.

I am so glad about Mark. You are kidding about Fall! But I do see it with my own eyes!! Crazy; it's not even August yet!! And with global warming, this is nuts. It has been almost 100 here. The leaves are probably dying of heat stroke!

Praise God for Mark's recovery!
When I saw your header, at first I thought you were pulling our legs. The last two days our meteorologists have declared a "First Alert" for the absurd heat and humidity. At this point I don't even care how high the grass is getting; no use courting a cardiac arrest!

That is unusual. I haven’t seen that here. We usually don’t start loosing our leaves until Nov. Even in Dec we still have some leaves hanging on.
Good news on Steve’s partner.

I'm happy about Mark. There is no fall here in Georgia yet. I love the black and white with the red leaf.

That does seem early for a tree to have changing colors so early.
Glad to hear Mark is doing better. Good that he was able to go to camp too and maybe have a little recuperative fun

Great news about Mark!

I hope you get some more summer before autumn makes an appearance.
