All Good Things Must Come to an End - Goodbye Texas, We're Back, Morgan - Garden Pictures Make Me Happy

-

After the best week ever we drove the long drive back to Morgan where we were greeted by the Rock Canyon Fire blazing on the other side of the mountain.  We were very blessed and the fire did not spread toward Morgan.  After countless long hours and very brave firefighters and first responders the fire did not result in any deaths and minimal loss of property.  We're sure glad it's over.  It wasn't fun to see those flames glowing ominously over the mountains behind the M. 

Garden moments as the summer season progresses. 







Our summer garden is in full production now!  Sooooo much summer squash and tomatoes!!!!

Wishing a Merry Christma...
