Thanks 11/24/11

• Mother Ocean lay languid and ice blue, quietly slipping one wave at a time onto the sand.  My first Thanksgiving at the beach.  I had to walk the sunrise.  Coming through the sea grass, I was greeted by a spritely Schnauzer named Lacey, who wanted some rubbing attention.  As Schnauzers are my absolute favorite dog, I was happy to oblige.  Even if nothing else good happens, that made my day.
• The tropical rainbow at the horizon stayed vibrant, no murkiness today before the sunrise.  There were no visible clouds, but Sunbella somehow made them appear for her act.  She became orange Christmas lights dotting the horizon, then a fan of pink-orange vapors rising like steam.  When she was ready, she banished the clouds so all attention was on her glorious rising.  The day begins.
• Thanks for:  letting me have some doggie love this morning; living here and walking the beach today and every day; the companionship of Sunbella and Mother Ocean and Luna Linda; getting to serve meals this afternoon to those that otherwise might not eat today; my Special Guy D that loves me even when he doesn't understand me; and my family that I keep loving even when I don't understand them.  WAB!  (what a blessing in case you're new to my blog)
• Happy Thanksgiving Yall!
