Coming Soon to Our Part of the World — Sunday, November 16, 2025

Walking by the window, I looked up and saw a SUNDOG!

Colder weather is heading our way in a very few days.

We are still in the process of corn harvest.  Two more fields to go!

In a Few Days Time (or less), — Wednesday, October 15, 2025

 

OH!  Is that a rainbow?

Not a rainbow, but a

But an extremely bright Sundog!  Stunningly beautiful, shining brightly there in the sky.

A sign of cold(er) weather to descend upon us.

Gosh, I think that is the brightest sundog I, personally, have ever seen!

Ah—-How I love the Glow of the Sun —- Monday, February 24, 2025

I love how it breaks up the Uncompahgre Plateau Range

Or the morning light fills the cracks and crevices on the Uncompahgre Plateau

Or gifts us with a Sundog or is that a rainbow?

And there there is the light through birds’ wings!

Light!  Sunshine!  Who can ask for more?

Sudden Natural Splendor of the Sky to the Earth —- Sunday, December 8, 2024

I was driving home when I looked at the sky and saw this amazing Sundog (a sign of cold, cold weather to come)

I hurried down the long drive way, parked the car and went around the west side of the house

(Much clearer than through a dirty car windshield 🙂 ) I raised my face, eyes, and camera to the sky and gave thanks for the personal enjoyment I always feel is a gift to humankind.

A Gentle, Wondering Sign—Sunday, November 3, 2024

While we were walking about after our amazing two days of very cold rain (and some snow) then a huge killing freeze.

We saw a Glistening Sight!  A warning—of colder, much colder weather to come.

Isn’t it beautiful!!?

I Love Light and Color—Wednesday, January 17, 2023

What I love about each season is

the light!  And the color of that season.

LOOK!    As the sun came up —-   a Sundog appeared!  It is right in the sky by the basketball hoop!

Colder weather heading our way.

Winter, Week Two — Wednesday, January 3, 2023

(I saw a sundog this morning 🙂 )

We are Week Two of winter—winter  that time of dark, cold, short days.

(An older photo of a sundog)

Still, winter is important — it’s a time of rest; in so many ways.

(From the archives—-I watch for sundogs all year long.  We see them the most in winter)

Sundog!  Colder days are coming—(also the sunlight will start to come back (YAY))!!!

(another from the archives)

Winter, we have 12 weeks of winter; two weeks are now over, or at least ALMOST over.

(This was the winter of 2015)

Moving forward—one day at a time!

A beautiful western Colorado Sundog.

From Northern Illinois at Christmas Time —- Sunday, January 8, 2022

Sent to me at Christmas time!!! 🙂

This was taken at a park/forest preserve property where I will go to relax and watch trains go by.

Below is a rail car that went by this morning, which was rather interesting:

WOW!  Thank you so much!

That is an amazing Sundog.  We don’t get beauties like that here.

The train car is fun—so many talented people out there!

May 2023 be a wonderful year for you and your family!
