I promised y’all a walk soon and here it is! I suppose 97% of Americans who aren’t at work on Memorial Day spend it at the lake. I am not part of the 97%. First of all, I can’t swim. I sink like a rock. Secondly, I’m REALLY white. Like, blindingly and I don’t want…
Highly ambitious, I set out with a goal of walking 5 miles this bright, blue September morning. A goal I reached in about an hours time. I could go faster, but then I’d miss all the lovies along the way! Here is what I saw. I guess all my lamenting over lack of mushrooms a…
Good afternoon, dear reader! I’ve been away for quite some time, trying to get back into the swing of things. While I was gone, WordPress changed formats so I’m thoroughly confused. Therefore, if this post looks bad, isn’t centered or whatever……I’m sorry. I don’t do change well and I’ve had a lot of them thrown…
Hello everyone! I can’t believe it’s been almost 2 months since I’ve been able to blog. Lots has happened, including but not limited to the following. A) I painted my front door green. B) It’s a bad, bright green therefore I am going to have to repaint it. C) The cows are settled in their new…
It has been ages since I’ve taken a really long walk. A walk which I didn’t have to rush thru like a mad person. My main purpose of walking today was to get some pictures of these awesome mushrooms I found the previous day. They peeked their little heads above the tall grass. Red, slender tubes,…
My first walk of 2017 was short and rather uneventful. I had spent the morning planting shrubs, sanding various wooden objects and listening to Hair Bands on Pandora. Some of the best advice I ever received was to go ahead and pay the 4.99 a month for commercial free radio. It’s insanely better. Anyway, I…
I know, I know….this walk is from November. But I’ve been a little busy with the holidays, building a house, working and home schooling and trying to keep everyone in clean underwear. And you know, life. I can not tell you how ready I am in to be back in a house of my own. To sip coffee…
September the 11th has a special, painful place in the hearts of Americans. On this particular day I reflect not only on the tragic day in New York, but also on my sister’s birthday. Her birthday came long before terrorists marred not just the day, but the face of American and World history. So I…
I’ve walked mostly without my camera these days, mainly due to the fact I have no internet but also because I’ve been trying to actually walk for fitness and that doesn’t really work out when you stop every 3 feet to photograph a mushroom, dragonfly or miscellaneous leaf. However, today was different. I wanted you to…
Recently my darling friend, Amanda, took her husband on a surprise trip to Hot Springs to celebrate their anniversary. I set up camp at her casa to look after chickens, parrots, dogs and various other creatures. My darling friend has a lot of mirrors. These lovely bits of reflective glass only reinforced the knowledge (shoved…
