Here's Julie and me on Thanksgiving (November 24th). This artsy photo was taken by Krissy.
---------------------------------------------
Wednesday, November 30, 2011 - Thanksgiving was almost a week ago, so I figured it was about time I put in a picture of us girls celebrating the day.

You can see her Pfalzgraff clock on the wall up above the window. The next day, I ordered a Pfalzgraff butter bowl for her from Replacements, Inc. It was fun and she's very excited.

Happy Birthday to Howard and to Jason. bye, djb

This was the view out the west window at 6:56 a.m. this morning. It looked so weirdly cool.

Here's the same view out the west window at 7:20 a.m. Yikes, where did the weirdness go?
---------------------------------------------
Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - They kept saying on the radio that there was fog this morning but I didn't really see it until I looked out the west window. WOW!

Isn't that a great spooky picture. It kind of looks like smoky mountains. haha bye,djb

On 11/11/11 --- I took this picture of the wireless thermometer's reading of the time (courtesy of the Atomic clock) at 11:11 11
-------------------------------------
Sunday, November 13, 2011 - Yes, I'm two days late and a dollar short. BUT, here's the picture I took on Friday at 11 minutes and 11 seconds are 11 o'clock. Right after I snapped that photo, I got a phone call from Krissy and we went boating.

So, I never popped this in here until now. The reason I put it in now is because I wanted to say that as of this particular point in time, the temperature on my computer (54 degrees) in Elburn is the same as the temperature in the Orlando Sentinel online newspaper in Florida (54 degrees).

That doesn't happen very often but it does occur from time to time, so I wanted to make note of it for future reference and possible discussion of weather and temps. haha later, djb

Here's my burning bush looking all red and pretty, plus you can see the colorful trees in the background.
---------------------------------------------
Sunday, November 6, 2011 - I took this picture last week or the week before....whenever. All of sudden, I realized that my burning bush was ablaze in its full fall foliage. Love it!

It's especially easy to see now because all the weeds are gone. During the year, you never know what type of bushes are planted around people's houses. That is, until fall comes and the burning bush shows off.

Fall back. bye, djb
