Let’s try this again, shall we? My fingers got ahead of my brain yesterday and some of you darling readers were delivered an almost blank post. I’m sorry about that. Here we go. Again. Meanwhile, back in Texas, there was a scarecrow trail. We went. And walked. And it was 5:00 in the afternoon. The…
Having been in the wilderness for over a week, I had lost track of the days. Realizing on my evening hunt that it was, in fact, Wednesday, I began snapping pictures from my perch. Here is what I saw. This is the view to my left, see my shadow? View to my right……. And behind…
My last walk of September was, as you may recall, taken in Wyoming. Our annual elk hunting trip hit the Cowboy State this year, thanks to careful planning and the luck of the draw. I’ll touch more on our 2 week adventure later this week but for now I’d like to share the photos I…
Substitute. Substitute is a word I can not spell. It is one of those words I can barely get close enough to spelling correctly that my computer is able to decipher my meaning. But that is neither here nor there. As you read this I will be a good 30 miles from internet connections, cell phone service or…
Another Wednesday I found myself in town, all these Wednesdays in town are self-inflicted but still. I’ll be glad when I get back to my old ‘free as a bird, without a care in the world, taking leisurely photo-capturing stroll’ Wednesdays. Soon, my friends, very soon. Maybe. Anyway, while the childrens were all in church…
Texas is hot. And I know I said, repeatedly, last winter that I would not complain about the heat when it arrived. So I’m not. Complaining that is. I’m simply stating a fact in an exasperated voice while sweating and squishing fire ants with my index finger. It. Is. Hot. I put off walking until…
Just as last week, I found myself working in town, camera and child in tow. Thankfully, we were experiencing scattered showers all day which limited our exploration of the creek and other surroundings, but that was okay! Rain, rain, we will take some rain please! Here is what I saw. In town. At the feed…
I love September. I love that it ushers in fall, cooler weather (sometimes), deer and elk season are right around the corner and that means camping and camp fires and mountains and well, I just love September. My first walk this September occurred in town but that was okay, Addie and I ventured out of…
Have you decided what you want to be when you grow up? I am leaning towards 33 years of life and still struggle with this question. I went to Junior College, check. Went to E.M.T. school, check. Started off as an English major at Stephen F. Austin State University, half-check. I owned a bakery, had a swimming pool store, then…
A sweltering day in front of me, I knew getting out early would be in my best interest. Even though it was before 8:00 a.m. I still spent 15 minutes wandering around the yard trying to get my camera lens to un-fog itself. It is ‘un-fog’ or de-fog’? One of the great mysteries of life…
