I dragged myself out of the house even though it was only 39* to go for a walk with Millie and Stacia.
I love fall. It begins in August and goes very quickly in Alaska. August is marked by RAIN. Lots of rain. I am working to get walks and gardening projects done in between the rainfall. It's beautiful. My very favorite view is when the fall colors are down below, and the snow is about 1/2 way down the mountains. We don't get this view every year because we often get a windstorm that knocks all the leaves off before the snow parades down the mountain. I took the time to grab a few photos of our mountains while we walked this morning.
The most important thing to note is the TERMINATION DUST on the top of the left mountain. Winter is coming - though I prefer to think it is at least 6 weeks away, the snow may arrive sooner.
I had hoped to work in the garden this afternoon but it rained every time I headed out. I spent a couple of hours looking at the book of Colossians for the Bible study I am attending at Wasilla Community Church. I also published a couple of blog posts. 
Stacia has classes until 9 p.m. on Tuesdays. We keep thinking we will get home from Lifegroup at the same time...but she is usually in bed when we get home.😀 This evening found us at Neil and Deb's enjoying pumpkin soup and salad, fellowship, and a challenging discussion about distractions, divisions and keeping Christ central in our lives and church. It was a fun evening.
The general consensus from the six of us at Lifegroup is that we may have snow in a couple of weeks. Really? Seems a bit early...but it has snowed at other towns around us and at Hatcher's Pass already.
I sense God working to restore things we have been praying about for months. We shall watch and pray.
