Clapping

The book of Isaiah speaks of trees clapping their hands. To me, this is exactly what these trees are doing. They are shouting in glorious colors. I took these pictures only about a month ago. They are bare now, and silent.









“You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.

Isaiah 55

Thank you for sharing these lovely pictures....the trees with their brilliant colors of gold, red, green and yellow make me want to dance with joy and clap my hands too.

Oh my goodness, what gorgeous colors. So vibrant and now quite silent. Brilliant photos! Thanks for visiting. I am sorry I can't tell you what the pale green flower is. It didn't have a marker and there was no one to ask. I have searched with no success but am hoping one of our blogging friends will know. Happy day to you Ginny :-)

They are so pretty! I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving. Do you let your cats have turkey? Our cats really wanted some, but didn't get any. I'm not sure how it would affect their stomachs.

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
