Giving thanks

I give thanks for this lovely loaf of bread, which will sustain me.

In this season of giving thanks for our blessings, I thank each and every one of you for making a bit of time in your life to visit my blog, to like my photos. I deeply appreciate it. I wish you a very good holiday season and a very prosperous 2016.

Colourful

We have started buying our eggs from one of my co-workers, who has several hens. The $3 cost is very reasonable, we support local agriculture, and a bonus is that our eggs are very pleasing to the eye.

Lookalikes

Stella and Achilles look somewhat alike; sometimes people ask if they are related. By blood, no; by species, colour, breed (sort of), and by being treasured companions, most definitely.

Glory

The glory of sunrise. The glory of a new day, a beginning. Everything is possible.

Standing out

Normally this young tree is lost against a busy, busy background of trees, bush, fields. A very foggy morning gives it the opportunity to be the focus of attention.
