Glorious Weekend.....

   Yesterday on my way to town. Just look at that clear blue sky. There was much happening yesterday, I went to the grocery for a few things. Do you ever forget stuff. LOL
  Saturday evening as the sun was setting. I had just filled the bird feeders.  I have not seen the hawk around for about a week now.
  Love this orange colored sunset. The air had been nippy all day, but the skies were beautiful.
  I always like the glow of the setting sun on the pines here. I know when it gets a bit warmer, there will be plenty of yard clean up going on here. :):)
  Now it's Sunday morning , February the 7th. I can see the sun in the trees down by my neighbors, the Gordon's.  Their house sits back from the road , an original farm house for this area.
  I walked into the field across the road for this shot....there you can see the sun. It's going to be another wonderful sunny day.
 Our clump birch. I love these trees. I really trimmed this one last May.  I have yet to buy a telescoping lens for this camera and I need one.  I better start saving. :) Since this is to be a nice day, I am going to get out and about. Tomorrow's forecast is snow showers...seems strange after the past few days of blue skies.
  Wishing all of you a great day. Don't eat too much junk while watching the super bowl. I don't like sports on TV...so I will not be watching. Have a fun day. XO

  6. I am forever forgetting something at the store, so I pop into the grocery on the way home from work frequently. Stores are distracting places - no wonder we forget a few things. Love your pictures. How nice to have trees!

    1. When my daughter Kathy got her license, she would do the grocery shopping for me. That was good for me. I know what you mean about being distracted. I always hope to NOT see anyone I know at the stores. ...cause I like to get in and out when food shopping. LOL. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie

    1. I agree...if you have watched this long gotta go till the end of it all. My grandson was asking his mom for pigs in a blanket for his friends coming over. I just had to laugh about that. Don't be jumping around too much. :) Bless you, xoxo,Susie

  9. As always, beautiful sunset pictures! I do love the bare branches of trees in winter against the sky. I would not care for a climate where the trees did not shed their leaves.

    1. Dewena, I love having 4 seasons n my year...although the older I get the shorter winter can be for me. LOL. I like looking at my trees all through winter. I decide which branches need a trim when they are bare. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie

  10. The sunsets and sunrises in your area ARE glorious, that's for sure. Our trees look bare right now too during these cold winter months. I love that first picture of the red house in the distance. It looks like a red farmhouse, so charming. Do you ever visit your neighbor's Susie? My next door neighbor is 80 years old, and she still goes to the hairdresser, decorates for holidays, and tends to her plants in the back yard. She really inspires me.

    Have a carefree Sunday, Susie.

    love, ~Sheri

    1. Sherry, You know what is funny...that red building is a barn...I have taken pictures of it before..and wondered why it was all by itself in the field. Well there's a house in front of the barn. LOL. I just saw it yesterday. Yes, I see my neighbor lady and her son .I have gone to lunch with the lady down the road...I like all my neighbors. There's nothing as sweet as an older person who loves to garden and knows all the plants. Blessing, love you , xoxo,Susie

  15. Susie...you take the best pictures. Of course we had much the same temps but not the landscape you have.

    I hit the grocery store a few times a week, I buy just a bit since it's just me and hubs. And I plan recipes and dinner last minute. It was never this way before but I like it a lot.

    Have a great week!
