I Can’t Get Enough
While on a drive around the country Sunday I snapped these pitures. I can’t get enough of the beautiful scenery in the fall in central New York.
Now I know that other parts of the country are beautiful but I am of the opinion that nothing can compare with central New York, especially in the fall. Even the sight of farmers harvesting their corn is a satisfying sight. It speaks to the farmer in me and the wife and mother in me.
The air has been crisp in the mornings warming to the 60′s by the afternoon. (very typical for this time of year) Nights are cold and clear. The weather man was calling for rain on Tuesday and Wednesday so we decided to make Sunday an outdoor day.
The colors have been spectacular this year because we have had very few rainy days. It has been a long warm fall. It makes me wonder what this winter is going to be like.
Our outdoor Sunday went right into the evening and we enjoyed this beautiful moon rising. Such an pleasure on a cool clear night. The neighbors provided us with a lovely bonfire and I provided the macaroni and cheese.
What a secure and warm feeling to go to bed under that moon knowing the day that the Lord has given you.

Thanks for the reminders of what fall can be like. I love leaves and farms. The Lord has us in Southern California so my fall is usually warm or hot. This year it is smoke, wind and ashes. But I am blessed, I didn’t have to leave my home and all I have to do is clean up ashes. And looking at the same moon makes me also count my blessings and pray for those who lost their homes.
May the Lord bless you.
Thanks for your prayers. You have been added to my prayer list. May the Lord keep you in His perfect peace.
