Thanksgiving Textures...

(...and no, I don't mean the turkey and mashed potato textures!)

November storm number 4 (I think) is already lined up for this afternoon so I've been taking advantage of the lull and have spent lots of time in the yard: leaf raking, getting rid of the slimy Hosta's, cutting down some plants etc. But most of all I have been enjoying all the textures and hidden treasures everywhere around us. Just look at these...

And a few of my favorites...

And I'll leave you with some X-Mas flavors...
