Ahoy You!
How goes your voyage? Before November 2018 disappears I want to share with you some thanks I had in this month on my voyage. First, I am thankful you are here for a visit, and always enjoy and appreciate when you log a comment!
At my Wednesday morning stitching group, I'm thankful to have been gifted with some Simply Soft acrylic yarn to make two preemie blankets. I have just barely started a little ripple blanket, not shown, and I decided to knit a blanket using the Grandma's Dishcloth pattern...so far so good .

| During our USA celebration of Thanksgiving, I was thankful to enjoy a meal and some puzzling with family members and a friend. |
When rain clouds lift I am thankful to see a coat of beautiful snow back on Mt. Hood after a hot dry summer that dramatically depleted the snowpack.
When driving around Mt. Hood one day I was thankful to spot this row of gorgeous golden trees.
I was thankful to visit the Good News Gardening Cafe in Hood River, OR.
They offer a limited but luscious menu of food,
and I [that's me seated] enjoyed eating a bowl of soup sitting by this cozy hearth that was already decked out for Christmas!
I am also thankful that our plans to sell the house continue to move forward and I anticipate being settled in a new home by the end of December.
Thinking of our homes prompts me to ponder these verses:
"Lord through all the generations You have been our home!" Psalm 90:1
Jesus replied, "All who love Me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them." John 14:23
"Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in Me. There is more than enough room in my Father's home. If this were not so would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you so that you will always be with Me where I am. John14:1-2
Grateful,
Gracie xx
