Enjoying The Fall...







The last two days have been great and I am enjoying the Fall weather. I'm not too much for extreme hot, but when we have temperature drops like we did on Labor Day, I usually get sick. I sure did, but I am starting to feel lots better.

It has been a nice spring & summer. We got off to a rainy start so the garden planting and harvesting was late, but it has come around and the girls and I have done quite well. They were able to pick up some more produce from others who had finished with their gardens and have added to their pantries.


So, far I've got my strawberries and some other berries, peaches, corn and green beans done for the year. I haven't done any tomatoes yet, but I hope to get some done this week. Beth & Amy have been busy making salsa with their tomatoes. As always, it is fun and rewarding to put food away for the year.

Today since it was nice and warm out, I decided to work on my storage building. I didn't know if I would be able to since I've had bronchitis, but I moved some of the gardening things out to make more room for my clothing bins. I am putting the summer things away & getting the fall out. It is fun to look at the decorations & things that I will be using soon.

Speaking of decorations, I can't wait to decorate for Christmas, but I like decorating for Fall also. I love my seasons and all that go with them. I just thought I'd add the squirrel picture because they are good at storing things for winter. :)

Well that's about it for what's going on at my house today...

Prayer For Our Nation...

Our Father and Our God, we praise You for Your goodness to our nation, giving us blessings far beyond what we deserve. Yet we know all is not right with America. We deeply need a moral and spiritual renewal to help us meet the many problems we face. Convict us of sin. Help us to turn to You in repentance and faith. Set our feet on the path of Your righteousness and peace. We pray today for our nation's leaders. Give them the wisdom to know what is right, and the courage to do it. You have said, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." May this be a new era for America, as we humble ourselves and acknowledge You alone as our Savior and Lord. This we pray in Your holy name, Amen.--- Billy Graham
