End of November, 2025

We only have one Sunday left in November and it is hard to believe. Does November go by very fast for you as well? Seems like we just had a warm October and BOOM now we are in the cold and even snow has fallen a few times. The trees are bare. This row of maples in the above photo are in front of my sister's (Dianne) home. My sister lives in the home our grandfather built in 1913. Our father grew up in the homestead and then brought up his...
Star Light, Star Bright

Last night I saw a trail of lights for the first time in the night sky. Charlie said it is Santa! I googled it and it was actually the Starlink satellites. Have you seen it before?

I think like never before, we are seeing and hearing about wars going on in the world today. I hope we each can give thanks and grace to those who have served, who are serving and their families for those that don't return. There isn't a family not affected by war I don't think.

Roadies on Road Trips

What did you do for your last week of October? The leaves have fallen 'a lot'. Do you decorate for Halloween? I did this year. I hope I have some goblins to visit on Halloween. Last year I didn't have even one kid. The above photo was taken in Tatamagouche on Saturday. This house I thought was perfectly decorated.
I attended a hook-in on Monday with the Truro, Friday Friends. It was a good time as usual. Lots of rugs to inspire you.
