I promised you all some pics from the beautiful Napa Valley/Alexander Valley areas and here they are. The first four pics are just a small sampling of the beauty we drive by every day. The next two were taken yesterday, Nov. 15, along the driveway up to Ingrid's sister's house in Ukiah. The colors are gorgeous everywhere it seems. The second of those pics is of her house looking down from the drive.
Then I took a picture of a picture showing Lilli and Bruno in happier days. In fact that picture was taken near Retzow, Germany when we were all there for the cousin reunion in 2005. We lost Bruno one year ago today, Nov. 16, as the last picture illustrates. This is a sad day in so many ways and yet we choose to celebrate the beauty and the joy of all the great years we had with this great man. It is an enormous loss, but we are all so much richer for his example.
I hope you are all having a wonderful autumn as we are. Praise God for the beauty all around us. It is easy to miss it with all the tragedies in the world, but don't miss the gifts God gives you every day.
