This is my place for writing and reflecting on life here in the mountains. Close to the sky, close to my children and family and most certainly feeling the closeness of God my Savior.

hard to focus on
Columbine in mom's garden
first they were dancing around in the sumer breeze on the last pic I used manual focus and got it way wrong, but I liked the abstract effect
Hey David. Popped by from Michele's on this lovely summer's afternoon. How cool it is that you were the ONLY person to notice the one wheel sticking up in the air.
I think I'm like that wheel: just a little different from the rest of the crowd!
As always, you've made me smile and thing. Peace, my friend.
Hello my friend on the mountain. These are really cool looking flowers. We have nothing down here like that, but you know that already. That's why you live where you do!
Those flowers are simply gorgeous! Thanks for sharing them adn also thanks for the birthday wishes. ust getting round to visiting everyone that popped by to wish me well :)
Living life, higher at 7000 feet elevation. Where the smell of pines, a distinct nip in the air, the sunset and sunrise displays of color and light fill your soul and set your spirit soaring. From high atop the mountains, nowhere near the city, I think, I write, I try to make you laugh. It is just me, my oxygen deprived brain and my bird and squirrel friends.
I am a lover of God, and I am a lover of life. My three wonderful children help me be a better man, and I consider fatherhood my most important role. These kids have made my life meaningful and filled with beauty. Nothing compares to them or gets between us.
My mom lived 91 years and as youngest I was privileged to make sure she was comfortable and safe in her own home, was never alone, had plenty of friends and family coming around. She knew, before she passed away, how much we kids appreciated all she did for us over the many years.
I am the youngest of five. I have ADD and it makes me fun, or irritating, depending on who you ask.
Most of all I am real, so this blog has fun aspects and then serious writings, too. You get both, for one click of the mouse.

David, I love the top one - the colors are so nice. What kind of flower is it?

Thanks, David. That's what I thought they were, but I am used to seeing them in profile, the way they sort of hang down. I love the shape of them.
Beautiful flowers. Those pepped me up!
Michele says hello too!
Here on my own. In Missouri, the Columbine have have come and gone, already. Looking forward to the hot summer flowers.
Cheers.
The last picture is beautiful! Funny how things work out like that - you thought you did it all wrong, and look how gorgeous it is! :-)
Beautiful flowers!
Here from Michele's
