catching up

I've taken a few photos lately with the intention of posting them....guess it's time;

A recent sunset from our front yard

and another as we drove west.

  

The heavens declare the glory of God;
   the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

 Psalm 19:1

 February decor...celebrating love

Lately

Here is what I have been doing that has kept me from blogging; taking bits of fabric and turning them into flowers:

Some will become pins, some hair clips, some will attach to necklaces or bracelets...and some will just hang around.   

It has been wet and cold here and I am enjoying creating things that are inspired by nature and hopefully will be enjoyed by others.

I came across some photos that I played around with this summer and thought they would be fun to post. These were all taken at Yosemite. Some are just tree bark or stone, others are scenic.

first post!

I have been checking out a lot of blogs lately and have decided to start one of my own. So far it has required more thinking than I had anticipated, so I am regarding this as a trial run. If it takes too much time or effort .... who knows how long I'll keep at it. But I am encouraged by those who have gone before me and hope it "takes".

I'll kick this off with a couple of pictures of our yard and a quote by George Washington Carver: "I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we only will tune in."
