30 Day Challenge~~Thanksgiving~~Day 15...GBBD NOV...

Cat, at The Whimsical Gardener, has challenged us to a 30 Day Challenge of Thanksgiving.
A post a day, for 30 days, to celebrate the things we are thankful for, in our lives.

~~Day 15~~

I'm thankful for today.

It's dark and stormy out there.  Rain is coming down gently, but a good amount.
It'll take many more of these days to really make a dent in the drought.
But, again...we'll take what we can get.

I'm also thankful I got out yesterday to take photos.

After three freezes...two hard freezes...there's not much blooming.
But, there is a little.

I like this one more for the foliage.

About to be trimmed and moved inside for the winter.

My new pansies have pretty faces....


Hope you're having a great day, and the weather is giving you what you want.

Happy Bloomday...

  1. Love this rain too! Nice blooms, looks like you planted your gift certificate prizes.

    My plants look so happy, although the rain has shredded the blooms.

This is a word verification free blog. It seems to be working out, so far.
