Saturday Photo: Countdown to Halloween

 Still about two weeks to go before Halloween but  a lot of folks have started celebrating.  This stack of lovely pumpkins and gourds is outside a small resto in the neighbourhood.  I wonder how long it will last...

Saturday Photo: Abundance for Thanksgiving Day

This photo of windfall apples spaks to the abundance of fruits and vegetables available to many of us during this harvest season.

Thank goodness!  We are so lucky to have more than enough to eat, to go to sleep in a warm, clean place, and, frequently, to be loved.

So even if you are not a believer, I think it is good to pause occasionally and take stock of all we have.  Gratitude is not a dirty word.
 

Saturday Photo: Resilient Beauty

 Saw these flowers this week.  Growing between paving stones on a busy street can't be easy, but nevertheless they have succeeded.  A lesson for us all when it seems the odds are stacked against us, perhaps.
