Peaceful Woodland

I am just starting to get situated after moving into a new house. After all the excitement was over Saturday evening, I got the cow milked and went out to the woods beyond the hay fields to see what I could find. I was surprised and pleased to discover that the trees on the edge of the hay field hid a small bluff that overlooked a beautiful creek wandering through the woods, with flowers blooming and the waning sun glistening on the water. I snapped a few shot with my cameras so you could enjoy it too!

Bloom where you are planted, no matter the opposition

Psalm 42:1  As the Hart panteth after the water brookes, so panteth my soule after thee, O God.

Ice Storm..and Cream

Thankfully it wasn't a real ice storm. Just a raw, wet, and windy day. I listened to the trees crackling with ice in the whistling wind.

The preceding two photographs were taken by two different cameras; a $200 body/$100 lens, and a $500 body/$60 lens. Can you tell which is which?

Once it warms up, anyone want some of my homemade cherry ice cream?
