Tonight, in Texas, is National Night Out. We didn’t have any parties planned on our street, but that’s ok because we have such great neighbors and we all know each other. We all look out for each other and I know that if I needed anything I could call on them for help.

Our neighbor across the street works for a restaurant food distribution company. A week ago he brought over pizza dough and pizza sausage. Today he brought over these potato wedges. We had them with meatball subs and they were so good.

The neighbor next door to him brings in everyone’s trash can on trash day. She also takes care of our cats when we have to go out of town. She and I are the feeders of the strays. I hope everyone gets out and meets their neighbors. It’s so important to have a good support system where you live. Especially if you’re like us and don’t have family near.

Hannah and I took a walk on the trail. When I first started walking and picking up the trash I could fill a whole trash bag. This time I only filled a grocery bag.

We found some mushrooms, but I don’t know what kind they are.

The light coming through the trees was so pretty.

And one of my favorite time of day is dusk because of the cotton candy skies.

I’d also like to ask anyone who reads here to please pray for everyone affected by Hurricane Helene. I have been through a horrible flood, but it was NOTHING compared to what North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia are experiencing. My heart breaks for these people many who have lost everything. Everything. Also please pray for those who are searching for missing people and are trying to get supplies in.

Because I cannot leave this on a sad note and because it is October 1st here is my Frankie.
