About Dayphoto

My name is Linda Brown. I live on a farm on the western slope of Colorado, in the high mountain desert. I’ve lived here all my life, hailing back four generations on my father’s side. Today I blog about our farm, the everyday activities that keep the farm going. I also write about my thoughts and dreams and goals. On Friday’s I always write about TLC Cai-Cai. Our sweet kitty who helps keep the farm safe. And Boo Berry Betty, a breeder dog learning to be a Farm Dog! The lovely thing about blogging it opens the world up for all of us to reach out and meet people from many different cultures and different ways of life. You can find me every day (but Saturday) at https://coloradofarmlife.wordpress.com/ Your Friend on a Western Colorado Farm, Linda Brown

If We Just Look — Thursday, March 30, 2023

The world is full of tiny, but powerful miracles!

Like an afternoon of blue skies and fluffy clouds!

They Say —- Wednesday, March 29, 2023

(An osprey nest on a power pole 🙂  )

Another storm is to roll in Thursday.  This time it will be only rain—which I hope it really is only rain.  And the rain stays in the mountains.

COME ON SPRING!   We are all ready and waiting for you!

After the Fence — Tuesday, March 28, 2023

Because it is still cold

We had to get ready for the next big storm which came in Sunday night leaving us with snow and ice.

We are all sure getting tired of winter—come on Spring fight your way through and give us balmy days!

A Break Between Storms — Monday, March 27, 2023

Saturday, we had a wee break between all the winter storms

So busy, busy we became.

Building and repairing the fence on the south side of the Upper End.

It was lovely and peaceful up there.  Birds singing. A small (but very cold) breeze.

And a job finished (And well done)

Magic of a FIRST of the Season —- Sunday, March 26, 2023

We were driving along and I saw the tail end of a RAINBOW through the rain-splattered window!

The first of the Spring, Summer, and Fall seasons!

Further on—There was the rest of it!!! The colors bright against the dark and uneasy clouds

A Rainbow!

Powerful and Wonderful Magic!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

Wind in the Fur and the Hair and in the Trees —- Thursday, March 23, 2023

The March winds are here

The wind in March has a true purpose

Without the wind the trees would have trouble

For it is with the wind the trees are able to bring the sap up from the roots.

Wind!  We jump for joy!

Soon the trees will have leaves!

WOW! Time Does Fly —- Wednesday, March 22, 2023

I have been blogging for 16 years this week!

I am stunned.

But also very grateful for all of you staying with me over all these years.

Thank you very, very much!

From my Heart to Your Heart,

Linda

A Shinning Simplicity — Tuesday, March 21, 2023

The sun has been seen so rarely all this late fall, winter, and now early spring

That when we do have it we are over-wrought with

Immense joy.

I would like to hang onto the joy of the sun.  Instead, we have the diaphanous sheen of pearly grey.

Sigh.

Linda
