Thanksgiving

A panorama in Limekiln State Park, July 28, 2014. Happy Thanksgiving~

As I scrolled through the thousands of pictures I have in my photo library, I was once again reminded of the very many people, places, things, feelings, and ideas that I am thankful for. Naming them could take until New Year's Eve! So, I will say this much... I am thankful for Chickenblog, because this place, where I scratch the surface of deep thoughts and other musings, has become a treasure trove, recording happy memories, dreams coming true, friendships blossoming, surprises, reflections, blessings. I am thankful to have a small part of our lives, our days, our adventures, and misadventures captured in images, in words. Chickenblog is here to remind me of all the good, hard, wonderful, challenging, and dear things we have enjoyed in twelve years. I feel rich in friends, blessed in comforts and experiences, and inspired by the beauty all around us. And I heartily wish you healthy helpings of all that lifts your spirits, raises your thoughts, heals your heart, and fills you up!

What is the salad dressing which you "love, love, love"? Making me hungry for it!

Well said, Judy! It's a place of beauty, nurture and inspiration.

hahaha... not the salad dressing. It was the bread stuffing-dressing stuff!
I took a taste test. Then another... then one more, then I implored William to make me stop, and keep an eagle eye on me in case I tried to backslide!

You two are NICE... the best kind of supportive, positive, sweet nice.
Thank you.

Hi Natalie! Happy belated Thanksgiving to you! I know I've been away for quite a while, but I'm back to blogging at a different place (too many memories at Bear Swamp Reflections.) I've thought of you often over the last few years and wanted to get in touch and let you know that we're doing well, some of us a little better than others. It's good to see you are still going strong—12 years! My goodness! I'm following you at my new place, Sweet Life Farm and look forward to talking with you again.

xoxo
