             As the last leaves drop from the trees here, the temperature falls, and the bright colors fade, I’m drawn to warm colors and beach scenes. This is a stunning tree I noticed on the coast of Washington last summer. It withstands the cold winds gusting off the Pacific Ocean and remains strong, helping to hold onto earth and sand while strong currents and large waves threaten to erode the shore. 

            Happy Weekend!

It’s fun to escape your everyday views from time to time. I love exploring new landscapes and this is a place that my son discovered for all of us to hike over Thanksgiving weekend. Fortunately, the trees hadn’t lost all their leaves and we were treated to some beautiful colors and scenery.

Happy Weekend!

              Before I left for Thanksgiving, I went for a 5 mile walk at Panola Mountain State Park – one of my favorite places to walk. Even when I’m feeling a little stressed with the long hours of work this time of year, walking here always calms me. The sunsets in the fall and winter tend to be gorgeous, with the sun reflecting a warm, golden light on the water. By the time I finish my walk, I feel renewed, a little more optimistic about the work ahead, and very grateful that I can enjoy this beautiful place.

            Happy Weekend!
