Tiny Prayer Plants
For the past couple of years, I have planted flowers in the pots outside the front door. I need to wait until after the possibility of frost, so I have been putting them out Memorial weekend. Last year I planted some seeds directly into the pots. They grew beautifully, but it took such a long […]
Relaxing and Rejuvenating
I love being outside and I love taking pictures. Today I found and attended a photography workshop at one of the state parks. It was led by a man who was a volunteer ranger, photographer, and archaeologist. He was very informative as we hiked around looking at rock formations and trees. I took a few […]
Beautiful Bird Song
Today was more mild than yesterday so my mom and I went out for our walk. The sun was warm and they air was crisp. We noticed a little greenery popping up here and there. Birds were chirping in the trees. We came to one very large evergreen and just as we reached it, the […]
No More Hen-Pecking
My sister who lives on a farm has had chickens for a year and we have been lucky to get fresh eggs. However, recently they have stopped producing and there has been a lot of hen-pecking going on. So, they decided to introduce a rooster into the mix. My sister reported that the young rooster […]
Needed Sunset
This afternoon I had to go grocery shopping and run some errands. Everything took me about twice as long as it should have. By my last stop, I was getting tired, frustrated, and annoyed. When I was finally finished and walked outside, there was a beautiful scene of the sun setting. The silhouette of the […]
Fly Fishing
I got a message this morning from a friend telling me that her son was going to be on TV. I met the young man when he was in high school. Like all teenagers, he had his share of struggles. But he was determined not to let that rule his life. He made some tough […]
Super Occurence
Yesterday, my dad and I headed up to the cabin hoping to get a good view of the moon. It was cloudy when we arrived and the forecast called for more high clouds. So, I was praying that the sky would clear for just a little while. When I got up in the morning, the […]
Expectant Moms
Today my parents went to pick up a new hearing aid and have the old ones adjusted. They have been going to this particular audiologist for many years. She had a baby a little over a year ago and is pregnant again. This time, she is carrying twins. She said it was completely unexpected and […]
Frozen Falls
The weather was very mild today, so my son and I took advantage of it and went for a short hike. It being winter, warmish, and very dry here, I wasn’t really expecting to see any outstanding scenery. We decided on a particular hike, but when we got to the trailhead, the parking lot was […]
Chickadee Call
My parents and I went up to the cabin in the mountains for a few days as the weather was pretty mild. Shortly after we arrived, my dad filled up the bird feeders and we placed them outside around the house. After several hours around dusk, we finally saw a bird at one of the […]
