Happy Valentine's Day!


When I went out yesterday morning to feed the horses, I looked across our valley and saw this:


OK so not a big deal to a lot of you out there, BUT where I live this does not happen very often!

With the rains and snow came some large puddles on our property, especially where the seasonal creek runs through the pastures. One casualty of the lazy ass kids was observed. Or maybe somebody sent the monster tricycle for a "ghost ride" into the creek. Regardless, this poor trike needed rescuing... I think I like the clouds that are not in the sky.


Enough photo essays for a while. I got to get back to writing again!
