God's Bounty

     It is the time of year when the Blueberries are ripe and ready to pick.  Our family has picked many gallons, some for family, some to sell and some for us.  I am thankful for the Blueberries God has given us to pick and for family members who have helped to pick and clean them.  Soon we will have more than blueberries to pick and be thankful for.  Are you thankful for God's bounty?

Downed Trees?

     This past week we had a Large twin tree go down in town on the land we take care of.  One went across the alley, the other onto a neighbors shed.  I was already in bed when I got the call.  It was after Midnight before we got to bed that night.  So what can one be thankful for when something like this happens?

• For friends with chainsaws to help at the spur of the moment to help get the tree out of the alley and help take the weight off of the one on the roof.
• That the shed held up and will only need minor repair.
• For friends who want some of the wood and will take some of the tree away.
