Pictures Out The Window

 How to ease this restlessness? The endless grey all encompassing...

  I decided to go for a drive and to take pictures out my window. I took a few pictures from outside my vehicle but other than that they are all pictures taken on my drive. I had to get out but I didn't want to get soaked and cold in the rain.

Oh January ~ you are relentless and yet you march onwards towards Spring and hope and beauty and we all wait in anticipation.


This is the house, sorry, CASTLE, going up in the meadow behind my home. It is now the primary view out my kitchen window. My brother had remarked that my back yard was like a Disney movie one day because there were so many squirrels and birds....well now I even have a castle!!! I don't know if you have castles going up in your back yard but it is a far cry from the Buttercups and horses that used to take up that section of earth :(

 Any blurry pictures are a result of the fact that I am in my vehicle and quickly snapping pictures!

The rain drops were all encompassing and dripping off his full beard. He looked like I felt ~ bedraggled and grey to the bone.

This is one of my favorite barns in all the world. One day, one fine day, I hope to own a barn similar to this!

               Can you see what is peeking through the clouds? Magnificent mountains!

                                           Oh the beauty that fills up one's soul so full.

              So many birds you can't see them well but they were all in a huff about something!

                                          Here they are Rachelle ~ Took these for you xo

I found myself at my grandmother's bench. She has been gone since 2012 now. Last year I lost the tiniest baby there ever could be and I buried her by this bench. So I also went to visit with her.

The view is serene and breathtaking. There are little caps of acorns all around the bench and the last time I had been here there were lady bugs and dragonflies making themselves at home.

This is where I buried my baby along with some flowers from friends. When I saw this I couldn't help but cry. There is so much grief and sadness in this world and yet always, always the opportunity to choose life.

That was my rainy day drive. If you have a chance to go out and drive in some quiet I highly recommend it. Look for the beauty shining amongst the rain drops. xo
