Happy Halloween!!

It's Halloween, the night when the little trick-or-treaters come knocking.  Here are some groaners to get you through all of the evening's excitement!

I couldn't resist this scary pair...

Happy Halloween!!

Natures beauty

The fall colors appear to have hit their peak this week in my area. I was able to get these pictures on Saturday. It was a beautiful brisk day and the leaves were glistening in the sunlight. Sunday dawned gloomy, wet and windy, many of the colorful leaves are now on the ground waiting to be raked up.
The pictures don't show the true beauty of the day, but it gives you an idea.

Have a great day everyone! 😊

Sunrise Over The Atlantic

Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead.

Week day adventures

This past Wednesday I met up with my cousins for our monthly lunch. We went to a restaurant called The Big Fish Grille located in Wilmington, Illinois on the Des Plaines river. It was too chilly to eat outside, but the view was beautiful. 

 The food was delicious. We started out with a glass of wine. It was half price wine Wednesday after all!

We all enjoyed a wedge salad.

I had a dish called " Charleston Shrimp N' Cheesy Grits "  which was extremely tasty.

A fun afternoon was had by all. The best part was not the food or drink, or the location. It was definitely the company. I am looking forward to more of these get togethers in the future.

 We were trying to capture the fall colors behind us, but our heads covered it up. Oh well, I like it better this way!

Have a great weekend everyone!

IT'S FRIDAY!!

Happy Friday!!

Where is your path taking you this weekend?

Deep Thoughts

I'm not a big fan of inspirational passages, but this one really spoke to me.  

Do you have any words that get you through the day?

A Moment of Serenity

The light on Cape Cod is magical and creates a never-ending change of rich colors. 

I find it so peaceful.

Happy Wednesday, Friends.

Animal families

I like these pictures. 

Have a wonderful week everyone!

TW wants to know...

What are your pet peeves? We all have them. Here are a few from the current trio of bloggers. The challenge is to match each peeve with the person who submitted it. We want to hear about your pet peeves as well so feel free to share.
Drum Roll please......

1)  When my feet are cold at night and I have to get up to put on socks.

2) Chin Hairs (two of us have this same peeve)

3) Warped grocery carts

4) Being kept on hold listening to bad music for what seems a lifetime

5) Spreading peanut butter and then putting the same knife in the jam

6) Not using a turn signal while driving

7) Trump voters (enough said)

8) New York Yankees' fans

9) Someone stealing your leftovers from the fridge!

10) Mouth noises

Thank you, TW, for suggesting this topic. 
GJ, Q, and Roxie appreciate it 😃

Finally Friday!

Welcome to the end of the week!  

A friend captured this spectacular photo of a Waxing Crescent Moon.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Cuteness

GJ has mentioned that her little kitty has become quite mischievous in recent days and keeps her on her toes. I am sure little Mo will give her some good material for future blog posts! 1SC pointed out that all species of babies have the ability to disrupt our daily lives, but the laughter and love they bring is so worth it. How true that is!

Have a great Thursday 😊

Some Color To Get Us Over The Hump

Happy Hump Day!  

After last Wednesday's camels, I thought it would be nice to change it up this week and give you a spectacular fall sunset over Cape Cod Bay.

Have a wonderful day, Friends.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
