Prepared to Look Up
We were excited that today was the annular solar eclipse that we have been preparing for. My brother ordered us some of those special glasses so we could watch the display unfold. My sister did some coloring last night with my mom and we realized that it was a good representation of an eclipse. That […]
Long Walk
Mom was feeling pretty good for much of the day and the weather was perfect. So we went out for a walk. She had so much energy, she took the longest walk she had in months. It was pretty amazing and felt good. As anticipated, she was tuckered out in the afternoon, but we were […]
All The Weather
Mom and I had been anticipating the first day of summer and it was finally here. The morning was just beautiful with the warm sunshine and blue sky. My mom wanted to go for a longer walk so she could see her mountain. It was good we got the wall on early as after lunch, […]
Human Rain Tent
It was a very rainy, stormy day today. In the afternoon, I went out to pick up some lunch for us and my mom’s friend who was over for piano day. I thought I was in between downpours, but I was very wrong. In some places, a whole lane was covered by a small river. […]
Spring Inside, Snow Outside
It was snowing outside today, so mom and I hunkered down in the house. The weather was warm the few days leading up to this storm and greenery was starting to make it’s appearance. A few trees had started to bud and if you looked hard enough, you could see some green grass among the […]
Upside Down Mountains
My mom and I went out for a walk this evening just as the sun was starting to set. There was a ridge of interesting clouds just above the mountains. The sun was behind the clouds creating a glowing edge around the top. As we continued on and the sun got lower, a section of […]
Breath of Air
It has been so hot here for the past few days, that we have pretty much stayed inside with the air conditioner running. Last night, however, a cold front came through and cooled things off. We stepped outside later in the morning and breathed in the cool air. We went for a nice walk, then […]
Taking Flight
We have so much enjoyed watching the pair of Red-Tailed Hawks over the past few months as they built their nest on the tall pine tree in our yard and raised a single chick. During the last few weeks, the fledgling has grown considerably and we can see the difference in it every day. It […]
Rain Tranquility
This afternoon we finally got a nice thunderstorm. The first ones of the season are always a little bit of a surprise. It lightninged and thundered and rained. After dinner when it quieted down, my mom and I decided to go for a walk. Just as I was about to bring her walker down the […]
Wonderful Weather
It has been several days since my mom and I have been able to enjoy being outside. The weather has been cold, or windy, or rainy. This afternoon we had our first full on thunderstorm of the season. The thunder boomed and rumbled as the clouds let loose their rain and small hail. It made […]
