By Thursday nearly all the leaves were off the trees and Tim was hard at work dealing with them.
Later Nate and Kay brought the littles down and we had a fire and cooked hot dogs. The weather has been so warm, it wasn't cold at all.
The moon dancing in and out of the clouds and was so pretty. It's nearly full.
Friends, tomorrow is such an important day in our nation. I know what the people want, but will we be able to overcome the cheating? I'm praying we will.
A friend shared this on FB and I thought it was good.
"Suppose a nation in some distant Region should take the Bible for their only law Book, and every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there exhibited! Every member would be obliged in conscience, to temperance, frugality, and industry; to justice, kindness, and charity towards his fellow men; and to piety, love, and reverence toward Almighty God ... What a Eutopia, what a Paradise would this region be."
--Diary and Autobiography of John Adams, Vol. III, p. 9.
"God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the Gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever..."
--Notes on the State of Virginia, Query XVIII, p. 237.
"Resistance to tyranny becomes the Christian and social duty of each individual. ... Continue steadfast and, with a proper sense of your dependence on God, nobly defend those rights which heaven gave, and no man ought to take from us." John Hancock
--History of the United States of America, Vol. II, p. 229.
People everywhere long for freedom. The source of true freedom is God, and found through his son, Jesus. All peoples, everywhere, should have the opportunity to know him. They may not choose him, but they should be free people.
Keep praying friends.

Such lovely photos. Smitten with the one of your fence draped with warm lights in front of your house. And that moon light photo was exquisite. Have a wonderful week ahead... xo
Your photos are lovely. You had a truly beautiful autumn. It was 72° today and I just took a walk around the yard to enjoy the warmth before darkness descends. Tomorrow will be a high of 48.° My hope is to get to the polls early so I can spend the day baking. I have a feeling it's going to be that kind of a day. 🙏🏼
