Winter Skies

After a soggy January, the rain finally stopped today and I was happy to go for a walk outside with partially blue skies peeking through the clouds. While it still remained dry, I ventured out again at sunset to see my favorite winter tree.… Continue Reading “Winter Skies”

Is it Spring Yet?

Inquiring minds want to know. No, I tell them. We are only half way through.  Though the baby daffodils seem to think so and shall soon show brilliant yellow blossoms. And the Rhodies think so too and are already displaying their color. No.  I… Continue Reading “Is it Spring Yet?”

Patches of Blue

Some days the weather outside matches the weather inside.  Today was cold and dark, with steady rain and gusty winds.  I didn’t feel like it but went out regardless to run some errands.  As I left the last store I noticed the rain had… Continue Reading “Patches of Blue”

Football Magic

I suppose I should have been watching the game.  After all, that’s why we had ventured out on a cold and rainy afternoon. We had bundled up in rain gear, and as we pulled out of the driveway I texted this to my step-daughter,… Continue Reading “Football Magic”

The Tree

Tonight before sunset I visited one of my favorite trees in the park nearby and found it standing proudly against the clouds. Looking forward to a change in the weather after a week of too hot and dry. ~  Susanne

Weary of the Sunshine

“Benji,” I said. “What are you doing under there?  It must be the weather, huh? ” “Catchin’ some shade,” he said. “It’s too hot for me. The sun penetrates my fur and slows me down.  Zaps all my strength. Like this,” he said. “Oh Benji,… Continue Reading “Weary of the Sunshine”
