a few more

We had such an easy, casual holiday weekend here. Erin and John Paul went to Mexico to visit his family and we were fortunate to have that impromptu all-together day the Sunday before. On Thanksgiving we enjoyed having Maggie and Mo at home, coming and going, cooking and relaxing. Gratefully, there were not any fire calls this year to pull Mo away and overall, it seemed a generous stretch of time to be together. We love that luxury always.

The days were sunny though chilly with warmer afternoons to walk out and see the town colors. It was quiet around the village which meant that I had the post office almost all to myself Friday when I shipped a super-sized stack of kit boxes. A new guy was in training at the counter under the watchful eye of a supervisor. He actually, cheerfully appreciated the repeat process of all my packages. Best way to learn the system, he said, by repeating each step. Same here, love that repeat part. Thanks to everyone- I'm going back with more this afternoon. xoC

Stunning photo Charlotte...the vibrant leaves so strongly resemble the colors in a flame.

Sounds like your holiday week was as warm and comforting as your photo. :)
