~ Autumn ~
 
 


Pumpkins in the cornfields
 Gold among the brown
 Leaves of rust and scarlet
 Trembling slowly down
 Birds that travel southward
 Lovely time to play
 Nothing is as pleasant
 As an autumn day!

Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth.

~Martin Luther

My Christmas Trees
 


MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Be merry all, be merry all,
With holly dress the festive hall;
Prepare the song, the feast, the ball,
To welcome merry Christmas.

~William Robert Spencer

Falcon Family

 Our back yard pond.

Can you see the falcon?



 
A little out of focus,
but here are the three young falcons.

 


 


 
Sitting on the arbor.

January Storm




Started with snow.






Across the street from our house.



Freezing rain covered every thing in ice.



Trees and branches broke from the ice.

 

We were lucky, no damgae to our house.

 

We started 2011 at Ocean Shores, WA.



A little January snow at our house.
 
Sun on the first day of spring.
Spring must be coming,
the Indian Plum is blooming.
