I enjoyed my morning taking pictures of old tractors, petting the ponies and pig, along with eating a pulled pork sandwich and stuffed jalapeno pepper!

Do you have a favorite pumpkin patch you like to visit? What makes it special to you?

Happy Harvest!

Today I enjoyed my morning at Ricky’s Ranch and pumpkin patch. Everyone was so nice there! I enjoyed taking pictures of the tractors, animals, and pumpkins. I ended the day with a pulled pork sandwich by Bootlegger BBQ along with a stuffed jalapeno wrapped in bacon and then smoked on the smoker…THAT is what I call awesome!

Today is a great day.

I am grateful this 314 day of my 365 Gratitude Project!

Happy Harvest!

Day # 313 of 365

Louie Schwartzberg shares his life of gratitude through his gifts of movies.

Have you ever wondered what OMG really stands for? He describes it as…

“OMG. What does it mean. The Oh means it caught your attention, makes you present, makes you mindful. The My means it connects with something deep inside your soul, it creates a gateway for your inner voice to rise up and want to be heard. The God means the personal journey we all want to be on to be inspired to feel like we are connected to a universe that celebrates life.”

He talks about how grateful we are for our eyes to see and our hearts to feel.

I am grateful for this video and for all that Louie Schwartzberg has brought our life through his projects.

Gratitude Project # 300.

I meant Barbara Lopez through Twitter. We would have little conversations together via Twitter. I would retweet on of her post, she would comment on one of mine. I found if I had a question, Barbara was one of my friends that would answer my question. I decided I wanted to take this relationship from a virtual relationship to one in person.

Barbara and I decided to meet for lunch at EL PUERTO (a hole in the wall Mexican Restaurant) in Rancho Cordova.

I was excited to meet Barbara! We wind up having such a great visit! Two hours later we were saying good-bye but planning our next meeting.

Who said Twitter was a waste of time? I would have never meant Barbara aka @brightfarm if it hadn’t been for Twitter.

I am grateful for my new friend, Barbara!

Day #299 of 365 Day Project

FYI Barbara talks about networking and reaching out to others. She offers classes on developing your Elevator Speech.

Church camp is awesome. I am meeting a lot of new friends along with having time with myself and God.

This morning a sizeable group from camp meant in the parking lot at 5am to hike to the top of Fresno Dome. Our plans were to be at the top of the dome at sunrise. Unfortunately the sun decided to come out a little earlier then we had planned. We still enjoyed our hike to the top where I had this picture taken.

I love going to little hole in the wall places to eat. Que Vie is a favorite of mine located in Cameron Park. I have never ordered anything I didn’t like!

Grateful for Que Vie in Cameron Park.

This was a fun evening. Ladies from NCL got together with vegetables from their gardens and made a fabulous meal including appetizers, soup, main course and a apple cake for dessert.

Fun times with NCL friends.
