News,news, depressing news

You would think that the economy failing would not bother me. I hate money and have always hated money. I love bartering at the market or anywhere else. I love eating what we grow and raise. I love making do. But hearing about economies failing in countries all over the world has me upset. I suppose it is partly because this is the first year Jeff and I have felt productive members of the community and I worry ...will we have clients and customers next year? But more than that I fear God has had enough...enough of the foolishness of this country and those all over the world. How far will this go? Will famine come? Will my friends lose their houses? But while I wait for the rainbow in the sky, I remind myself that He is in control and the majority of my friends are of His people as well as I.

A Day Off

Jeff and I took the dogs to Grayson Highlands today for an old dog hike. It was a wonderfully cool day with clear blue skies and fluffy white clouds. So nice for a Sunday change instead of being at home surrounding by work. The leaf colors were just on the verge of changing...red maples with a hint of red and a little scatterings of yellow. We rode by Whitetop which reminded me of the Maple Syrup Festival there...maybe we will get a chance to go next March. We really need to head over that way more...it is like a vacation one hour away.

Need to do......

Fall is here! The long sleeves are staying on past the early morning hours, the walnut leaves are falling, and I'm thinking of warm things to eat. Ok so maybe it is still getting in the 70's but that is close enough to get me excited.
