Opening Day.......Part Two!!!!

There is sooooo much beauty all around me, I am overwhelmed with excitement by a simple walk in the garden. I want to capture everything, as if, without the picture it did not happen. A quick trip in to the yard, turns in to hours....and just "one more shot!!!!" My feathered friends have taken a back seat, although I think they are thrilled to be eating undisturbed.

So here we are, Opening Day.....Part two, wait till you see what has "opened" since yesterday!!!!

The Pink Dogwood

I love the pink against the blue sky!!!!

I Want To Live on a Farm......

really, I do. I love where I live now....one acre, on a river, on a culdesac. Very cute little neighborhood, but recently I have been dreaming of a farm. Perhaps it is all the blogs I have been reading, all the farm animals and wildlife I have been viewing. I have always been in love with nature, lately I have been longing to live somewhere,

like this. 
With lot's of these,

and maybe some of these.

and I loved these Blue Slate Turkeys
(I did have to "google" that!)

These goats were adorable
and clearly hungry!

A couple of these,

and some of these...

these,

these,

and definitely one of these!!!!!!
