~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~

Sunrise Through the Trees and Something to Ponder
Sometimes I wish we had a clear view of each sunrise, but I do like the pattern the sun creates with our trees. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
Morning Sun on Decorative Grass and Something to Ponder
The morning sun captured my eyes when I saw how it highlighted our decorative grass. Normally this grass is brown. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
Upgrading Doorknobs After 56 1/2 Years
Cerwin decided it was time to remove our old, indoor doorknobs and replace them with new ones. It was a more difficult job than he expected. The old ones were hard to remove. Attaching the new ones was much easier. These doorknobs have been here since 1967 when we built the house. The new ones […]
The Highlight of Our Backroad Drive and Something to Ponder
After checking out the eagle nest, we headed home – the long way. As we made a left turn, I said, “Stop. I think I saw a pheasant.” What a delight to see him up close. The ring-neck male is so pretty. He watched me for a while, trying to be invisible, but I think […]
Local Eagle Residence and Something to Ponder
One of the things we wanted to do on the way home from our backroads lunch was check on our local eagle nest. It is also on a backroad, and we were pleased to find one of them at home. As the eagle flies, this nest is about three miles from our house. I don’t […]
Old Log Cabin and Something to Ponder
We go by this old – being restored – log cabin house every now and then and crossed this road when on our backroad drive. I wonder about the dreams and plans of the owners. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
Winter Creek and Something to Ponder
We can upon this very high winter creek on our backroad drive. It looked cold and gray. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
Discovery on a Backroad Drive and Something to Ponder
We were not aware of this deer “farm” so close to us. Just one of the blessings of taking a new backroad. They were well protected from us and from escaping. — Something to Ponder —
Our First Home and Something to Ponder
When going out to eat lunch on New Year’s Day we made what could have been a four -mile drive into about fifteen miles. The first back road we chose went past the house where we lived when we got married in 1963 – sixty years ago. The Graybill’s worked the fields and had cattle, […]
Gray New Year’s Day Sky and Something to Ponder
When leaving on our backroad New Year’s Drive to lunch, I noticed the very overcast sky. There is something pretty in a gray sky. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
Hickory Nuts Silhouetted Against a Sunrise
Cerwin has used the nut picker upper and raked them until he filled eight wheelbarrow loads of hickory nuts, yet the trees seem to still be filled with them. They looked pretty silhouetted against the sunrise a few days ago. There definitely was a bumper crop this year. Our squirrels should be happy through the […]
Pork and Sauerkraut and Something to Ponder
Pork and Sauerkraut is a local tradition for New Year’s Day, so Cerwin offered to take me to Brickerville House for lunch. He doesn’t like sauerkraut so had a loaded baked potato which he declared the best he ever had. I needed a take home box and have enough for two more meals. ~~~ Something […]
