THANKFUL THURSDAY

 Thankful Thursday ... 

Yes ... we did get a bit of rain !  We were so thankful that we got all of those heavy, dampish leaves raked and that the garbage man picked them up the following day.

We never got to the front of the house and I'm afraid that these leaves are just going to remain for a while.

It does make a pretty carpet for me to see as I sit in my "Office" aka The Dining Room.


The weather guys tell us that the Pineapple Express is on its way for the next week or so.  That means a "warm" rain day after day with very little snow in our mountains.  The lack of snow isn't good for the Valley's future water supply.

I just love this view out the window.  Looks like Christmas is coming !



Most of the rain drops have gone away but I really like this bare branch decorated with the shimmering droplets.


Of course all of these photos look best enlarged.  I have been giving my iPhone Mini a workout lately.  Practice, Practice, Practice ... 

Thankful for these Words of Wisdom.


Always be Grateful

Always be Kind.

Glad you got the back yard cleared of leaves - you have a lot in the front. I love your meme and it is so true - we have to watch ourselves and what we believe. Love the photo captures too. Don't know what an iPhone mini is.

Those are great words of wisdom!
Glad you got those back yard leaves taken care of. It's raining here now and the snow is melting, but more snow is coming tonight.
