It's a special time, when we gather with friends and family.  Thankful for those very people we are blessed to have in our lives. People we can share our ups and downs with.  People we can share special times with.  

People we can share Thanksgiving dinner with!  :)

Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received.
Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling.
Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.~henry van dyke

MORE SUNFLOWER SMILES

Fame is the scentless sunflower, with gaudy crown of gold; But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

CLOUDS OF THE DAY . . .

This is what I woke up to this morning.  It's been mostly wet and dreary here for the last 2 weeks.  Today added insult to injury.  Snow is beautiful when the sun is out, but when it's just gray and foggy, not so much.

But ... this is where I'll be in about 2 weeks.  I am soooo ready!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

For the longest time I looked at this background thinking it had to have an animal in there somewhere.  Birds ... maybe another Raven.  I put it away for several weeks and when I picked it up again, there she was. 
Waiting.  Patiently.

CLOUDS OF THE DAY . . .

I recently flew back east.  At one point this was my view from the plane.  I wish the photo was a little clearer as the clouds were just beautiful and it's a little hard to get the full effect here.  Not just big white billowing clouds, but so much detail within each one.   Mesmerizing.

Have a great week!
