I'm so aware of how grateful I should be for all the little blessings in my life, especially in view of the devastation that our area suffered last weekend. We were among the lucky ones who were not affected.

Oh, I love the little things most of all, I think! We have a resident salamander that lives in the little garden pond down by the old place. He is magnificent!

Before I read what kind of lizard it was I thought it looked like a tiger. :)
We all have so much to be thankful for.
Some of the little things ARE big things. :)

Little things that are also so colorful are wonderful to see, Kathleen. Did this salamander stay around very long?

Rose said...

My granddaughter would probably love it! The little things can be the most wonderful of all.

That would startle me if I saw it here. We don't have such things. Striking.

Such a beautiful salamander ...
When I was a child I often saw fire salamanders, they live in deciduous forests and look a bit like your salamander :-)
Many greetings to you. Have a happy weekend. Viola

A beautiful salamander. The only salamander I've seen here was a black shiny one. Your last post is wonderful too. Don't know how I missed it. Those leaves are so neat. I have enjoyed watching the leaves fall
