Feets—and Wings—-, Wednesday, December 20, 2023

Feets—so cute

Feets and wings 🙂  Gotta love ’em

The world is suspended in flight…just for my blog 🙂

(And yes I know feet is the correct spelling, my son, as a toddler, always said feets.  And I love it!)

As the Night Closes In —- Tuesday, December 19, 2023

There is something rather special about that time of night called the Gloaming.

Very special.

In the Harsh Winter Air — Monday, December 18, 2023

We still have some green leaves hanging around here and there.  I’ll look one day and they will all be on the ground.  It will be sudden…no turning brown—just done!  Dropped.

And, of course, there are all the leaves on the ground I need to clean up.

Which probably won’t happen now until March.  🙂

We Are DONE! WE ARE DONE! WE ARE DONE!!! —- Sunday, December 17, 2023

Our truck

And two good neighbors who came to help

We finished…as the night started closing in!

Off to the elevator first thing in the morning and we said:

DONE!!!

YAY!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-MOM SAID TO TELL YOU, Friday, December 15, 2023

Mom said to tell you that Mom and Dad are in the end game of the corn harvest right now!

YAY! The Harvest of 2023 is almost in the bag!

TLC and Boo Berry

(And the big trucks and the big green machine won’t be coming through our yard anymore!  YAY!)

 

We are Changing from Autumn to Winter Now— Thursday, December 14, 2023

We are going from fiery orange

To stunning Hot Pink

Which will gradually turn into a gentle

soft pink.

For now, though, we BLAZE forth in stunning glory!

Blowing in the Wind —- Wednesday, December 13, 2023

Boo Berry and I were walking along the canal bank when I came across these lovely cattails blowing in the wind.

It was such a delightful sight.

We Are Starting to Dry Up — Tuesday, December 12, 2023

Finally, after all the sun and the freezing and the thawing

We can walk on the farm now without being sucked down into the mud

The light breaking through to highlight the Adobie badlands seemed to shimmer in the evening air.

It was a bit of magic sitting there in frozen air–I feel grateful for seeing and getting to photograph the sparkle.
