May I proclaim with the voice of Thanksgiving and declare all Thy wonders.

This is a view today of the woodland garden. The green Japanese maple has brilliant red foliage. 

I photographed this overview of the woodland garden from our drive.

Red and blue-green colors pop against each other in late November.

"Lady in red" hydrangea foliage complements the out of season blooms of an azalea.The fall colors of a viburnum I once purchased for two dollars. It had no tag, so I don't know its name.

Rosa mutabalis is still blooming in the front garden. The Japanese maple on the left is our "marriage tree".

The sky today was clear blue, after several dreary cold days. I am thankful!I am blessed with many trees. These are behind our house, on the edge of forest land.

Another view of the Japanese maple we have owned for thirty-four years, since our marriage.Hundreds of birds were in the trees today. Their songs filled the air.Rejoice!

May you all be blessed throughout this holiday season, Deborah
