Growing in a sheltered place
Small wonders of God

Observing the sky
Sunset colors fill my eyes
I worship with praise

Ice blue winter sky
Mountain ash berries in red
Worthy wind chilled walk.

Weekend Reflections: Snow

Smooth snow reflects lots of light,
Tire tracks reflect less!

Everyday Life: Kitchen

I decided to participate in a new meme called
Everyday Life Around the World

This week's theme is "Kitchen."
It's a great theme for winter in northern Idaho!

Evergreen branches
Drooping, bending, with snow's weight--
Nature's impression.

Real Mail, not E-mail!

This post is a little different. I want to introduce you to a fun activity which I found on another blog. I would say which one, but I don't remember! It is called Postcrossing, and I have put a link on my sidebar for anyone who is interested. The idea is to send and receive postcards all over the world. It is simple, and the only cost is for the cards and postage. This is the first card I received, it came from France:

Don't Fence Me In!

I think that indignity can be avoided with this barbed wire, anyhow!

Sometimes the most unusual things
make interesting art.

Come for a Walk with Me...

It's a beautiful day! I have some time, let's go for a walk!

The light is wonderful for photography; what neat shadows on this wall!

These maple leaves are not finished turning yet, the veins show up  well against the green.

Probably this lawn has been raked once or twice. The bench is for my friend Paulie; simple and functional.

On the other side of the same house, look! The gate is open! Isn't it a delightful shade of red?

I just love yellow leaves against a blue sky, don't you? Both colors are more lovely then.

Golden glow; 

sunshine through yellow leaves!

The willow is just starting to get ready for winter, but this boat has only to be moved off the street for its nap.

A neighborhood kitty watching me watching (and photographing) her!

It's tempting to try to pet her, but let's not disturb her from her observation post.

Another open gate! Some people must have been in a hurry this morning!

I think these are tiny apples, but I'm not sure. I love the fall colors, though!

I would like to scuff through the leaves in this alley...but, no, not this time...!

This is an old tree, may it live many more years!

One more shot, and then I have to go inside.

 Thanks for coming with me!

Autumn Reflections

Thursday was perfect for walking and photography.
I didn't need to walk far from my car to find this, but
I have other pictures that took a LITTLE more effort.
Stay tuned!

Some are hanging on to summer

Some have let go
