Thanksgiving- Sentiments and Expressions of Appreciation

I met with Hazy Oberski for hot chocolate today. Hazy, one of our colleagues here at AR, not only is a top-producing REALTOR® here in the Asheville area, but a big lover of LAND, as I am.

Hazy always takes time to express thanks. When I posted recently about the upcoming season of giving, and wondered how to express my thanks to clients and friends, she introduced me to Send Out Cards--eco-friendly greeting cards you can design yourself, printed on recycled paper, Made in the USA...stamped and sent from the USPS! WOW!!!~ That is quite a gift for my business and personal communications.

THANKS HAZY! Thank you for reaching out to me. ..and for sharing some time this afternoon…even if only for hot chocolate.

Possibly an attitude of gratitude starts within, and then it just expands….to family…and friends…and neighborhoods…

As I drove home after our meeting, still feeling grateful, I decided to stop by St. Mary's Church. Constructed in 1914 in the English Gothic Revival style, this building in our North Asheville neighborhood maintains its beauty and welcoming atmosphere.

I never fail to enjoy just looking at the red brick church with that stone foundation and steeply pitched gabled roof. Something about the windows (pointed arches with leaded glass diamond panes) speaks to me of continuity and hope.

As such it is just one of Asheville’s inspiring architectural gifts for which I am grateful ....

Wishing Y'all a HAPPY THANKSGIVING
