Beautiful evening walk...
a startled quail flew off her well hidden nest. As soon as I caught my breath I found the nest with
10 eggs!  I can't wait for them to hatch! They hatch in 17-23 days and I'm not sure

Fall in Arizona



I love this photo so much that I had it enlarged to 11" x 15" and framed. I have three of my favorite lake sunrise/sunset photos hanging on my family room wall.





TurrTull finally went in for the fall/winter season. He just missed his favorite habiscus in bloom.






Remember when I painted this set purple? Well, now it is going on the front patio and it had to match the mosaic wall in progress so it got the colbalt blue treatment. Nothing last around here very long as it is!!





I have so many beautiful sunrise photos I decided to make a photo book of the many I have taken over the past few years. I love my home and I'm so grateful that I wake to such a daily blessing.

Reflections



In stillness there is fullness, in fullness there is nothingness- in nothingness there are all things.

Quaker saying


The water on the lake was very calm this morning, as there was no breeze at all. This gave the lake a mirror quality, helped along by overcast skies.

SO Close

Well, the Atkins diet didn't work! Went thru the holidays without cheating, did everything right, and not one pound lost! So what if my Synthroid prescription had to be adjusted twice, you would think maybe a pound! I picked up the Perfect Weight book by Jordan Rubin, and did just like the book said, " Change your diet." I knew then it was time to change.

Because I already follow the Biblical food laws, eat almost all organic, take tons of supplements, know all about the bad fats etc. I felt I could just skim throught the book. Well, when he mentioned that dates were good for the body and they were on the diet list, I jumped into my car and headed to Sprouts! I picked up 1-1/4 pounds of Majoole dates. I ate one--then two, and before I made it to the half- way point home I finished the whole package! You know the routine- already cheated so might as well eat everything in sight, right? Well I did and now I'm on a full blown binge! Hope to pull out of it soon-that pot of gold above and the perfect diet was soooo close!

Backyard Beauty

O she is all perfection,

All that the blooming earth can send forth fair

All the the gaudy heavens could drop down glorious.
