ICY MORNING and CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE

Amen.....
Cold rain still falling this morning but thankfully we don't have any ice as some of the areas of the county are really coated and over 4,000 folks are without power this morning from fallen trees on lines.
This is a picture of our friends blackberry patch up on Sugarloaf mountain this morning covered with a thick coating of ice.

We got up 30 minutes early to get things done and get to market a little early to get set up. Traffic was very light on the roads this morning as we took the main roads to make sure we avoided any fallen trees or limbs from the ice.
Our market table was all decorated for the season and ready for the days customers.


We had 2 tables of goodies to share in appreciation to our customers manned by a couple of our members.

IR was all decked out in a Christmas outfit for the event.
 Santa made an appearance but IR didn't know what to think about this man in the red suit but she was glad to take a piece of candy from him.




Hubbie , daughter and IR all left about noon to make a trip to Sam's Club and then home. I had no trouble keeping up with customers after they left. It was an okay day but the icy weather certainly kept many customers at home today.
I stopped at Ingles on the way home to pick up some supplies for tomorrow's lunch and then came home to get unloaded and get things put away.
IR was here with hubbie while daughter and son-in-love went to a movie.
Today a long line of tractors came to town carrying toys for the needy kids in the area as the tractors for tots toy run rolled though town to Jackson Park.

Daughter and son-in-love came back after finding no seats in any of the movies they liked and watched a football game with hubbie while IR slept on the couch.
Hubbie and I got chores done and then had some turkey salad for supper from the last of our left overs.
We had a restful evening to end another week. I saw this today and even though it's a little late for Thanksgiving I wanted to share it as this is how I feel each day.

Thankful for the blessings of this day.
God Bless and Good Night
