I’m back…I’m back…yep I am!

From the adventure of surgery and I’m feeling like me again!

DSC07226

And I hate this part as I feel good enough to do more but my body says “yeah right gf, go ahead and try”…so I’m taking it slow.

But doing more each day…grabbing life and as usual hanging on tight for the ride of my life! It always feels dang good too…that ride thing on my horse’s back:)

I am truly sorry for being so long in posting a new post…I have thought of you all daily but I have been too tired to do much of anything.

And last week we had a severe weather alert…and a tornado warning….scary yes and whoa…tornado?

DSC07214

Here in this corner of Eastern Oregon we do not get tornadoes…ever…and now it is becoming a common experience each year with a tornado alert!

DSC05204

OK Kansas., now quit that…you can keep the tornadoes and we will keep our peaceful fluffy white clouds along with the man in the moon each night!

DSC04079

And we have hit over a 100 degrees already…unheard of in June here…another record and a first…not good for the wheat at all!

DSC07143

And I’m back…all is well and all is ok! I have tons of pictures to capture to make up for lost time and posts! Hang on and know I am not going anywhere! Wishing you all a wonderful evening with good stuff from me…

HRCG, Ellie, Melody, Dasher, Tucker and Wild Bill we’re over and out for now…but not for long!

Golden dreams call to me, as the old clock with its steady tick tick tick lulls me to sleep….

SONY DSC

I smile as I remember visiting my Grandma each summer with Mom…

SONY DSC

I loved hearing Grandma’s clock chime on the hour and on the half…ticking its tock, counting the precious seconds in our families lives, for well over a 100 years now. Just think if that clock could talk!

Mom used to set the time ahead when she had to practice piano as a little girl growing up, in a much different world than today.

SONY DSC

I rest in God’s grace and His quiet peace…as the old memories wash over me.

SONY DSC

The crickets came back early this year with their nightly serenade singing me to sleep…drifting off to la la land:)

DSC05716

Life is ever changing…we all seem to live our lives dancing as fast as we can…

DSC03422

And I love the dance but, I do remember a simpler time. How about you?

Wishing you a “Blessed Easter” week!

HRCG over and out for now….

Skies of glory was incredible to capture…I hope you enjoy the photos!

DSC05383

It all began Friday morning about 7:30 when the sky colors and odd clouds caught my eye…

DSC05384

I looked out while grabbing my camera!

DSC05386

No time for shoes…thankfully it was already 58 degrees!

DSC05400

The colors and clouds kept changing…it was calm here but there was turbulence above in the clouds…

DSC05406

The majestic light of Heaven was shining through the clouds with iridescent amber colors…

DSC05398

And the word “Glory” was on my mind…”Shekinah Glory.”

DSC05411

As the sun slowly climbed out of his bed…

DSC00344

He peeked out at my camera and beamed his bright golden rays of light, for a beautiful day!

SONY DSC

May you have a “Glorious” Weekend Wherever You May Be!

Just plain weird…it’s that time of year that makes you crazy as our timing is off!

DSC05182

Darkness at 4:00 in the afternoon…nah, that’s just plain weird!

DSC05153

By now we would have had a hint of winter…but this year is just WEIRD!

SONY DSC

And Tucker would agree…it was 70 degrees here today…weird huh?

DSC05279

I mowed the yard today…in a t-shirt with no coat! I have to say it, weird…weird…weird!

DSC05341

A frosty November morning with a beautiful sunrise and then the temps rose to 65 degrees by noon…just plain weird!

DSC05361

My flowers are happy and yet blooming…

DSC05366

And growing into November…that’s just plain weird!

DSC05352

My dog grazing with my horse…what?

DSC05359

HRCG and her just plain weird bunch here is off for the moment…

But lucky you…we’ll be back!

Golden Carmel Colors Of Fall…Fall Softly On The Land…

SONY DSC

As the early dawn light slowly creeps through my window,

SONY DSC

Waking me with a soft amber glow…

DSC05277

God is painting the day for me:) Incredibly beautiful!

DSC05225

The surreal light lasts throughout my day…as do the colors of fall.

DSC01339

With the days being shorter…time passes blink fast!

DSC05284

Night moves begins…full of swoopy clouds with golden colors fading into blues, pinks, oranges…and a beautiful sunset!

DSC03649

And as the world turns…

DSC03165

The sun yawns and goes to bed…

SONY DSC

And as we follow the sun…we too yawn and decide Mr. Sun has a good idea:)

DSC03009

With that said…HRCG along with Wild Bill, Ellie and Tucker in the background are over and out!

Have a blessed weekend wherever you are!
