Makes A Fine Stew!....


All these seasons mixing together!!

Mt. Hood in late autumn....


These past few weeks have been a savory mix of weather,  activities, health concerns, family and friends!  I am grateful to be well again!

I have enjoyed having family here to care for these past days.

The end of a long lasting, hard covered $1 relationship....such a challenging, but meaningful time....  

Can't seem to get my head around this new one.....





     Tonight we end daylight savings time. Sure has been a great summer and fall! So sorry to see it go. That means longer dark evenings and nights, winter and rain.  That means in about 8 weeks the daylight will start getting longer again!  Yay!!

     This has been a good 7 "makes a fine stew" days in the life of Grandma G.

     "Then Jesus said to his disciples, 'Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear.  Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes....your Father knows that you need them.  But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well'."  ( Luke 12: 22-23/30-31)
