Thanksblessings

I am very thankful for the many blessings I have in my life such as the eyes to see the sunrise and... the sunsets.












I am thankful for the friends I have made over the years. These are some from Arco, Id where we are for the Thanksgiving weekend. (r-l) Kendra, Karen, Shouanna, Keri & Kaziah. These are the bestest friends ever. No matter how long it is between visits, we can just pick up as if we'd seen each other just a few mins ago.



This is Walt & Mel. Mel is Shouanna's husband. Together they own the Mountain Man Trading Post in Arco. It's a cute little country store that sells gifts, ice cream, pizzas and sandwiches. The have a few Native American items that between fresh local fruit and vegetables is what they started out selling. They have become great friends.




The Garner's, where we are staying, use a wood stove to heat their home. Here Walt is doing his part to fuel the fires to keep his skinny bod warm.










A down side of Arco is the temps can get really really COLD. Last night it got down to 10F. BURRRR The windows even froze over. Thanksblessing for the wood stove.
