    Wow, I was surprised to see some roses still alive! Watermelon too? How lovely is that? We have already had hard frosts and snow so there is no last hurrah around here. Lucky you!

    Still a lot happening in your garden as compared to my area where everything has been lost to the frost. I bet the last watermelon is tasty. Enjoy!

I think the earth moves around the sun faster and faster each year, but I can't prove it. Before another minute goes by, let me share my Ten Things of Thankful list for this week. I'm thankful for family: A birthday dinner with my daughter Birthday calls/texts from family members Beautiful flowers from my children A Facetime call with grandchildren. (My grandson repeated three words the entire time: "I am three!"

Drexel never gets up.) John and his engineering skills. Yesterday, the bishopric of our ward (church congregation) drove around the neighborhood and (taking care to observe covid recommendations) passed out doughnuts to everyone. Eac
