More Fall !



The sunsets have been unreal!
If you were driving, you HAD to pull off
and check it out.

As a church, we have started our
Bible Study.
Another sure sign of Fall.


I volunteered to bring treats.These were such a hit, that
I have included the recipe at the end!


And yes, Tom was my willing
taste tester!


This picture was taken in the
Walmart parking lot.
The greeter at the door stopped me and told me to check out the sunset.
No kidding!

God sure know how to paint the BEST pictures.


And now....
Grandma's  brag book.
