Please forgive me for being so slow in g...Janette…<br /><br />Please forgive me for being so slow in getting your comment posted and replying. <br /><br />We've spent the past several days reworking our great room as best we can manage, in anticipation of our Thanksgiving dinner and guests, which we're looking forward to celebrating Thursday. I’ve not had my desktop Mac hooked back up until this morning, and have only been checking email once or twice per day via my iPhone. Besides working at that, there's been much running around on errands plus a visit to see the granddaughter.<br /><br />The landscape here along the river has lost the snow cover you saw in the last couple of photos. We're back to a more seasonal November look. Also, it warmed up for one or two days, though only temporarily—and never so long that the fire in the woodstove was allowed to go out completely.<br /><br />I did enjoy my sausage and potato soup…though I've almost never met the soup or stew I didn't enjoy. <br /><br />Finally, I appreciated hearing from you, and am very pleased you regularly stop by this riverbank blog and like what you see. Please feel free to comment at will; you're among friends here—and are always welcome.

I really feel I am right there in Ohio. Here in Edinburgh, Scotland the change of season is not so dramatic and we get very little snow in winter so I particularly love your recent photos. I hope you enjoyed your sausage and potato soup. - Janette.Janettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10627905786280060240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322683719539438825.post-53224215996881062452014-11-18T22:46:04.058-05:002014-11-18T22:46:04.058-05:00Florence/Out To Pasture…
Thank you for your nice ...Florence/Out To Pasture…<br /><br />Thank you for your nice words. <br /><br />I do know I'm very blessed—in so many ways. It's always too easy to get caught in what you don't have, what could be better, whine about stuff you wish you could change or improve. I try my best to not do that—at least not to loudly or often.<br /><br />That's one reason I share, to in some public form, say how very thankful I am for my life and all I have. And also because sharing gives me such great pleasure—whether it's a photo, words, a meal, whatever. Sharing is privilege.<br /><br />And FYI, Moon-the-Dog is really doing remarkably well for her age. Better than me, I suspect.

Of course I was pretty hungry, plus the cold weather and woodfire helped—not that I needed help. <br /><br />I hope you're doing well. Take care and stay warm.Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322683719539438825.post-22390960010797807602014-11-18T19:16:28.986-05:002014-11-18T19:16:28.986-05:00Well, it would be insane not to succumb to those f...Well, it would be insane not to succumb to those fabulous temptations. Water fowl in your lovely stream, gorgeous nature scenes and mouth watering kitchen aromas -- gotta express your appreciation to these gifts that make our lives so rich.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your stream through excellent pics and narration. And I'm glad to hear that MoonTheDog is continuing to enjoy her life, as well.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />FlorenceOut To Pasturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17949493910996476623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322683719539438825.post-51754824729661402052014-11-18T18:54:42.182-05:002014-11-18T18:54:42.182-05:00Hi Grizz - great pictures of Winter's promise....Hi Grizz - great pictures of Winter's promise. And I can smell the sausage and potatoes and garlic and spices - and I can feel and smell the wood burning and the coffees rich aroma as the cold glistens and beckons just beyond the frosted window. I am right there, pouring my coffee, tasting the soup and settling on to the hearths bottom edge in a delightful and content day dream. Thank you for the escape.<br />Love Gail<br />peace.....
