Thankful!

So much to be thankful for this morning.....a beautiful long weekend (for the most part), lots of people here getting their garden supplies, a good 'tired' feeling if there is such a thing. Thankful that we are spared the rough weather that so many around us are getting. The loud thunderstorm and torrential rains of yesterday afternoon pale in comparison to what the folks in Joplin, Missouri experienced this weekend. Our grass is so green, the strawberry patch is white with blossoms, as are the apple trees. When the sunshine returns this afternoon, the bees will be busy polinating the fruit blossoms to give us an abundance of fresh fruit this summer .....something else to be thankful for.
