Friday's Fave Five #689





Hi everyone.  Welcome to Friday's Fave Five.  Please join us as we open our eyes and hearts to all the blessings in our lives, both big and small.  If you're new the guidelines are linked in the sidebar.  Then just join on in!



 ~ evening walk ~ we've had some gorgeous weather but one evening during the week it was absolute perfection.  I decided to take Tux on a walk in the later evening to a Little Free Library close to home.  It was warm but not overly hot as it was evening and the sun was on it's way down, still totally light outside, no wind whatsoever, the birds were chirping.  Tux walked really nicely, which isn't always a given and I found a book at the Little Library that interested me.  


~ greening up ~ we've had some good spring and summer showers this year and things are looking so wonderfully green this year.  I'm soaking the lovely color in before summer heat and no rain starts to turn the local scenery in the coulees and river bottom brown.  

~ stunning late evening sky ~ this incredibly lovely evening sky was a joy to behold last night.  Such a gorgeous orangey pink against a light blue sky.  God is an artist!




~ lunch out with friends ~ I'm always up for a lunch out with friends on a Sunday.  Great food enjoyed with great company!  

~ smell of rain ~ love the smell of a short afternoon rain on a warm summer day.  So fresh!

What are you grateful for this week?

I'm glad it's greening up there! Your walk sounds like a pleasant excursion in every way. What a beautiful sky. Always good to have lunch with friends. I love the smell of rain, too. Have a great weekend!

That sky! Beautiful shot. Things are staying green around here, too. The little thunderstorms are sure a welcome relief with the heat. Have a super weekend!

What a gorgeous sky! Oh I love the smell of rain too. I was happy to hear you were able to have lunch with friends, sharing time with friends is such a treasure.

A triple fave rolled into one with that evening walk, an obedient dog, and a book!

Love those other faves. Sounds like those have really blessed you this week.

ooh we need rain badly here in NYS! We had one short afternoon of it..thankfully everything is still lush and green in most places but i fear if we don't get a good couple days of soaking things will start to turn dry and brown.
I LOVE that evening sky!!
I love walks in the evening too. Tonight I plan on doing one before our late evening dinner arrives...courtney is gonna pop in with a pizza she's picking up after work and will eat with us before she heads back to her place.
I LOVE the smell of a good rain in the summer and lunch with friends is always a true blessing.
Happy Weekend and keep those prayers coming. i'm having less pain during the bulk of the day but by the time i'm home from work it's back. anyways, thanks for all the encouragment.

Restful walks, (cooperative puppies), beautiful sunsets, and meals with friends are all wonderful blessings God gives us. I'm glad you had those this week.
Enjoy a restful and beautiful weekend!
