So much to be thankful for.
Today is Thanksgiving and I went for a hike on the Bruce Trail in Limehouse. It has been a family tradition for as long as I can remember that on Thanksgiving Monday, a bunch of family and some friends go for a walk up north and use the leftovers from the turkey lunch on Sunday to make turkey sandwiches. It’s lovely to experience all the different colours and smells of fall and be out of the city for a change. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to climb any trees but I did climb up, down and through some nice crevices. I had hoped to get in some spelunking as I have done in past years but there were no places to spelunk in! I was disappointed. So below are some pictures from today as well as other beautiful scenes of nature that are awesome reminders for me of how beautiful and incredible God is.


The waterfall picture was taken in Pennsylvania and the beach pictures were taken on a little island near Belize. That beach looks wonderful right now. I would love to be back there or any beach for that matter as long as its nice and warm.
I am so thankful that God has given me the eyes to experience so much! Everyday is thanksgiving day because I have so much to be thankful for - God has blessed me over abundantly!
So now that Thanksgiving is over, its time to start thinking about Christmas! Woohooo!! There are (let me calculate)... 11 weeks until Christmas! I enjoy the Christmas season, can you tell? :-) Ok, I won't scare some of you by talking more about Christmas....yet...hehe.

Thanks T, do I know you? If not, thats cool, random people are cool! :-) Nice blog btw.
I checked the weather just now Shawn and there are no flurries projected and even if there were, that would be totally unacceptable! It would be unacceptable cuz its only october and I'm not ready for snow yet. Snow can only come when i'm ready for snow, haha, wouldn't that b nice?! I'll have to talk to the Big Guy upstairs about that one.
