Adieu...

I'm shutting the blog down folks.... at least for the time being.

With the hours at work and life in general, it's just too much to try and keep up with at this point. (and do it justice) I just want to say that I appreciate all your comments over the past two years... very much! I will still be lurking about...so don't be surprised if I show up in your comments from time to time!

God Bless,

and Best wishes for the holidays.

I'm speechless.....

Spectacular Sunsets of the Past

Some of these were taken with a cell phone camera, so the quality is greatly lacking. What I find interesting when I look at these is that I remember where I was, what mood I was in, what the weather was like for each and every one of these photos. (except the 3rd photo which was taken by my daughter and who has given her permission for it to be posted here.) I remember who I was with, if I wasn't alone, and how the beauty of the sunsets, each different in their own way, made me wish I could paint them on canvas, just as they appeared in front of me.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I'm very grateful for all my family and friends, especially my daughter, who makes me proud every day. My thoughts and prayers are with those who are serving our country today - God Bless you and keep you safe.

Gone to the Birds

Lately, when I take my walks, I've noticed an increase in activity of the local gulls. They seem to be anxious for something to happen, either the weather to change or for some tasty morsel to drop from the sky! I sometimes take bread down to the lake to feed the ducks and loons but most of the time it's the gulls who enjoy the meal.

A Walk on the Wild Side...

Last light....

I've been gone too long.
Headed home,
to sit by the fire
and dream of things to come....

A Trip to Green Briar Nature Center = An Extraordinary Jam!

Green Briar Nature Center

Wings of Freedom Tour

The Pics are a bit of a jumble but here's what was at hand to see today at Hyannis Airport:

A B-17 Flying Fortress
A B-24 Liberator
and a TP-51C Mustang

What an experience being up close and personal with these marvels of WW II!

Mellow Yellow

These are a few shots of the lake at sunset. No touch ups, just pure natural color!
