Big winners in last month's contest, BV and Marti won some fabulous prizes! Watch out for November, though, because I have learned how to post not just photos, but video as well! And, since I have to work on Thanksgiving (my family's traditional day for putting up the Christmas tree) I may beat you all to it by getting my holiday started early! I am a winter holiday fanatic, so watch out!!!!!!!
I am going to help chaperone my SIL's Jr Hi band at a hockey game tonight. They are playing the national anthem and staying for the game. I would much rather just be going to the game! What is hockey without beer? I rarely drink alcoholic beverages, but I will miss having one at the game. Oh well, it is hard enough to keep an eye on a bunch of tween-agers, not to mention trying to set a good example. :c) I guess I will get by! hahahahahahahahaha!
I passed a gas station on the way home this morning and unleaded is $2.44 here. My Mom says that it is about $1.92 in Kansas City, MO area. Well, there is no state tax in TX, so I know it won't get down that far, but less than $2.50 makes me feel very fortunate.
Driving home was a joy for reasons other than gas prices. It is a perfect fall morning, and the sun is shining very brightly but a little low fog was hanging around. It's cool, too, and I LIKE that!
I'm getting ready to make some shrimp omelets for brunch. DD aand SIL will be here to eat and then I think we are going to go try and hit golf balls again! I may learn to play yet!
Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

This photo was taken at Carlsbad, NM, but it pretty much looks the same here. What a beautiful landscape!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Mr BubbleJesus replied, 'The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me. 'Now my heart is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save me from this hour'? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. John 12:23-27
HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK! Jeff
