My Road Home
Everyday that I go anywhere away from my cozy home, I drive this road on the right. It curves past wooded bits of nature sandwiched between a little lake and homes on the right. Up the road a piece, it goes past a little church with a steeple, fall flowers in bright array, and another road that...

Yes, I Must
I must share these golden days with you while they are here before the leaf decides to turn loose and whirl and twirl, and dance along the road; before the rainy days bring cooler air, and snow begins to fall upon a world of naked trunks, and branches bare of beauty. I must also save them for myself...

Just Turn Your Head
Each day I turn my head a different direction to see what I can see. I don't have to turn it very far for the picture to change considerably. I drove to the grocery mart today--took the long way around. Many times I wished that I could stop and photograph, but... the traffic would not allow it....

Sad Day Beauty
There is beauty even on sad days. The sun rises, and the sun sets, and all things in between, whether good or bad, make our being what it is. We give thanks and praise the Lord, or we moan and groan and complain. We smile or we frown, we laugh or we cry, we worry or we sing, but the day goes on from...

Zip-line Fun At Any Age
Don't you just love this. I call it Super Woman...and she really is. A life long friend who lived on our block when we were little girls and who is still a pack of fun at age 75. This is at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival and she is riding on a zip-line. You wouldn't get me on one of those...

A Gift From The Son
Son #3 called before noon to say that he and Grandson Phil would be over for a visit in a little bit. When I finally got the knock on the door it was after 8:00 p.m. I was beginning to get worried. He laughed about that. He had a gift for me and that was the reason he had taken so long. He always...

At Hand
Every day it's more lovely. The colors change daily, deepen, darken, cover more area. Soon there won't be a green leaf to be found on my favorite tree. I don't have to go anywhere to see this lovely tree, It's right outside my windows.

Never
I never tire, whether break of day, or at evening's set of sun, to cross the road where geese waddle from lake to new-mown grass and back, where deer stand frozen when dark sets in, and drivers can see naught but flash of eyes lit by headlamps, often much too late. I never tire, of watching...

Life In A Tiny Town
"Strange that so few come to the woods to see how the pine lives and grows and spires, lifting its evergreen arms to the light -- to see its perfect success." ~ Henry David Thoreau This very tall pine with it's straight tall trunk and whorls of smaller lateral branches reaches high above the old two...

As I Go
Just running around my neighborhood there is much to look at and enjoy this time of year. The skies were/are overcast, dark and dreary, and a fine mist is/was coming down at times. I was in the parking lot of my bank when I took this. Straight across and behind the trees is my pharmacy where I get...
