Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
One evening, about a week ago, I noticed that a neighboring farmer was creating an interesting sunset when working in his field. About that time another neighbor drove by with a load of hay bales. I don’t think he even saw me in our driveway – with camera in hand – because he was also […]
It has been 20 years and nine months since we said goodbye to you. We miss you Daddy (Cerwin’s dad), but know you are enjoying your heavenly rest. A highlight of his life (other than the love of his family) was fishing in Canada. Daddy as a young man.
This was my view of the evening sun through the dogwood tree on our patio. Beauty happens every day in some way if we are looking for it.
I enjoy making a large pot of tomato soup and freezing about 2/3 of it for cold, rainy, fall lunches.
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High

I am amazed that these tiny flowers have not yet given up to the cold mornings of November. We are supposed to have a cold week, so maybe this will be my last view of them.
Pleasing the senses or mind aesthetically. Attractive, pretty, nice-looking, pleasing, alluring, lovely, charming, delightful, appealing, splendid, wonderful, magnificent, glorious. This sunset was definitely pleasing to my eyes.
These birds are so much fun to watch and I have many opportunities to see them through-out the year.
Wednesday, November 11 Yesterday was a cloudy, rainy day and since it was Veteran’s Day I was reminded that it had been two and a half months since we had seen Roy and Deb (our youngest daughter). Due to being at home so much recently because of a lot of COVID in our area, I […]
The quality of being clever, original and inventive. You get to see Cerwin’s clever leaf-gatherer invention every fall and I love to tease him about his “red-neck leaf-gatherer.” But, I am mostly proud of him for using an old trailer to create this apparatus. In some areas of the yard, it was like plowing leaves […]

Interesting facts on why we sometimes see a purple sky. A professor of meteorology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, explained that the sky turns purple because of extremely low atmospheric pressure. Particles, or aerosols, scatter sunlight as it passes through the air, which in combination with the absorption of light by the ozone layer, gives sunrises […]
The White-breasted Nuthatch is a perennially favorite among backyard birds because of its active personality. Nuthatches are the only species that can walk up and down a tree. They don’t use their tail for support but rely on the strength of their legs. The name nuthatch is derived from the term nut hacker because the […]
Point of view. Giving a distinctive impression of distance. The angle or direction in which a person looks at an object. The ability to understand what is important and what isn’t.

The time that marks the beginning of twilight before sunrise. The appearance of indirect sunlight being scattered in Earth’s atmosphere when the center of the sun’s disc has reached 18 degrees below the observer’s horizon. When the sun’s upper limb breaks the horizon, when direct sunlight outshines the diffused light.
To see or observe a thing or person Watch, view, survey, gaze, witness, inspect, discern One of my daily challenges is to never miss the beauty around me and to truly “behold” life.
