A Few Things I Love
Dear Creatives, I hope you had a wonderful 4th of July ours was relaxing. Last year at this time I was in South Lake Tahoe visiting my brother & his family. I am not sure if I will make it up there this summer but, you never know.
I was just reflecting tonight after having no internet all day to due our local carrier so I had been looking at older photographs in my computer library & wondering what to write about tonight. { I should of pre-written my post, oh well! } So I thought I would share a photo collage I quickly put together of a few things I love & why I love them, hoping that you will get to know me a little better. I hope you enjoy it!
1. A few things that I love are the morning doves that fly into my yard everyday. At first it was just one, then a pair & now sometimes I see as many as four or five. I just love hearing birds singing, cooing. I put a bird bath out in the yard & seed. Water is very hard to come by around here as it is a very dry climate. I love all birds & they migrate through here at various times of year.
2. When I moved down to Central CA. I brought so many of my outdoor plants, not thinking that the climate was going to be so different. All of them died except for this lovely cactus plant which is thriving & blooms every year in a pretty bright coral color. I miss having a larger garden, more blooming flowers, but I did put in roses which are pretty hardy when watered & pruned in this area.
3. I love to bake. I even enjoy it more than cooking & I think that is because it reminds me of my grandma. I also love that Sammie is learning to love to bake & who doesn’t love the sweet results?
4. Another thing I love is nature. This photograph is of last July in South Lake Tahoe, CA. We were at the beach on the lake & this was the view. They had a super long season & their was still a bit of snow on the mountain. The weather was perfect in the 80’s, the contrast of being on the beach & seeing this view was amazing! Where I live the grasses are all dry, golden hills of CA. I miss the green, I love the pretty flowers that bloom & am enchanted with botanical photography.
Well that is it for me today!
I’ll love for you to share something about yourself so I can get to know you better!
