This is a sunrise photo!

By the way, Mother Nature is on her own schedule and she doesn't care one bit if I'm ready or not! 

Onward...

"Nature is the thread that connects us all."

This is a quote from one of my very favorite TV shows, Mountain Men which is regularly found on the History channel. I would hate to miss an episode as this show really has captured my interest.

I almost can't believe it's November already. Not many pretty colors this year. Too wet. BUT! I found a couple.

The cabin is stripped of it's enhancements of pretty plant life, and we're almost ready for snow. I say this because the golf car isn't yet covered. There may be another day or so I can venture out and find a shot or two.

 James awaits his winter attire. I hear his teeth chattering already! By the way, mouse count-5, vole- 1. Trap reset almost every morning.

Five to Seven

At five o'clock yesterday afternoon we had a beautiful rainbow after a shower. I missed most of it when my grandson gave the alert while he was repairing the dock as I was in the middle of something I couldn't immediately leave!  This is all I got but it is still O.K. 

At seven o'clock this morning we had a beautiful sunrise. I was alerted to it because I could see the red glow in the lake. I had to go outdoors and all through wet leaves and grass to get to the point where I could take a picture. I missed the best of it but this is what I captured. It is OK as well.

The beauty of Mother Nature is always food for the soul. 

Awkward April

Oh! Those April "showers" -yeah, snow showers- will kill my flowers! 

The walkways are treacherous, the daffodils are sad and the little birdies are frozen! The truck doors won't open, and James wants a new outfit! The good thing is that the sun is rising. It's 6AM April 16, 2014. I have demanded that it shines strongly ALL DAY!
