There are Glimmers of Love, Hope and Joy in the World Everywhere — Monday, August 28, 2023

Posted on August 28, 2023 by Dayphoto

The old Gods live with us, even now. They provide sparkles on the water, help the fields grow/turn green/ripen, and sing to us in the morning/noon/evening.

They gather close to us all the time, but only at the edges of our lives: the edge of morning, the edge of evening; edges.

But Glimmers—now—they come in all forms, (also).

Saturday—in the mail came a hand-made card from Far Side of Fifty.

Telling me I was in her thoughts.

Glimmers of goodness abound everywhere, always.

Thank you so much, Connie! The card was a lovely surprise-you are so talented. And your handwritten note is a true blessing.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

As You Grow Older and Older — Sunday, August 27, 2023

Posted on August 27, 2023 by Dayphoto

As you grow older and older you find out that you can not really live without the simple little things, those small joys which make up life.

And one of the small but (so exciting) joys is opening an email with a gift inside.

A luxurious snapshot of Sara’s farm, the sheep, and A HEART Cloud!

Lucky, lucky me!!

Thank you so much, Sara!

From my world to your heart,

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-Another Fire on the Plateau, Friday, August 25, 2023

Posted on August 25, 2023 by Dayphoto

Another fire! Not far from the first one!

Smoke fills the rim of our sky and sometimes the whole sky.

Mom says there are other worse fires out there in the world.

What we all need right now is RAIN!

Without lightning and thunder.

Caught on the Game Camera — Wednesday, August, 23, 2023

Posted on August 23, 2023 by Dayphoto

Yep! Us!

I had sat the game camera down (heading out to the corn field to see if I can photo the deer).

These two wanted in—so I helped them by opening the door! 🙂

Caught on Camera!

The Seam Between Summer and Autumn—Tuesday, August 22, 2023

Posted on August 22, 2023 by Dayphoto

August is that point in time when things are moving toward a huge change

If you spend all your time inside a building or a car you won’t notice anything

Until the slow movement has stirred itself into true

Fall.

But, if you are like Terry and me, outside much of the time—you will realize the gift we are being given—

The sun still sending us heat and the cooler mornings heading toward Autumn.

Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

Linda

A Touch of Fall is in the Air — Monday, August 21, 2022

Posted on August 21, 2023 by Dayphoto

You can see it in the sky, on the land, and with the deer!

The deer always arrive when the corn is in the silk. Not good, but a fact. They are very hard on the corn—eating only the silks, therefore, killing the cob.
