    Arbo, Annabelle sure has grown! She's just beautiful.

    Shodan, Niko has a very intelligent look in his eye!

    This is from our hike this weekend:

    Gwen, I miss my art stuff and not having a central tremor because I can SMELL the oils I want to use, feel the brush up against my cheek, hear that wonderful sound of the drafting board I used to use as an easel...hear it clicking into place as I get it at the perfect angle.

    Beautiful.

    Ah, Gina...I don't paint anymore, but I used to. I can still remember the smell of the linseed oil and the turpentine. You have made me remember how much I miss it! About a year ago, I bought some paints and canvas, but I have yet to start anything. *sigh*

    Maybe someday.

    Autumn

    Just to note location, in the deep south of South Dakota, in the haze at the top of the picture are the Missouri River bluffs of Nebraska.

    Our fall colors are in much more open spaces then Gwen's beautiful shot.

    Since I took these a couple weeks ago, we have had lows in the 20s a couple times and most leaves have now dropped.

    Beautiful shots, shodan! Love the perspective in the one with the cows, and the misty colors in both shots!

    This was taken last weekend on the Appalachian Trail at Long Creek Falls:

    Beautiful, rsr! How close were you to get that shot? I'm thinking you had a long range zoom! :)


    This was taken a couple of weeks ago. I love all the colors and how God paints a different picture every morning.

    Just to put another perspective on the picture of the cows, above, I took that standing in front of my car in our church parking lot.

    Don't know why two photos from the same camera and both via photobucket, are different sizes [above]

    Gorgeous photos!

    BTW, I have the same thing with photobucket. The pics turn out different sizes and I have no idea why.

    "Spring is just around the corner when the pelicans return."

    Tell that to the guys in Minnesota! A friend I spoke with said the 40 mph winds piled up the few inches of snow into deep drifts.

    LAST year, the last week of March, everything was in full bloom...the earliest that I ever remember (here in S. Dak.) Many apple blossoms were hit with a freeze in April.

    THIS year, everything is still dead brown.
