FALL FAVES!

Some things speak autumn at our house.
The sight of Psalm 143:8 on my computer screen. 
Sight of ginkgos on Grandview. (Genesis 2:9)
Smell of chili cooking.
Taste of pumpkin roll and Werther's Original Harvest Caramels.
Sound of rattling from the glass pumpkin jar lid....an alert that someone is helping self to some candy corn.
It's how I knew my oldest grandson had come through town for a visit. 
I almost heard him before I even saw him.

How grateful I am the Lord God created seasons for us to savor with all our senses.

Palette of Plen-TEA -ful Beauty

The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good. (Genesis 1:12, NASB)

Dropping temps once again prompted our "favorite season" discussion at water aerobics. Most tended toward the temperate months tho there were a few "hot-weather" die-hards. 
A last vestige of summer against a brilliant fall sky.
Among the temperate climate lovers, autumn seemed to be the winner. Color being the reason.
Certainly there is much beauty to behold this time of year, especially if you, as friend Jerrie, are a fan of orange. 
This past week in the mountains, I once again had my eyes wide open to God's offering of "fantastic foliage n the foothills." It seems in the fall that even if you're just squinting, there is color everywhere, even in flat Memphis, where pumpkin orange is prolific! Pumpkins on parade. 
A true palette of plen-TEA-ful color served in a cuppa beauty. 

All by God's design. God saw that it was good and I do as well.
