Julio Catchin' Rays

Good Evenin'

And, we did make it over the freeze mark; really quite a beautiful day. The weather folk even "about face", again and we just might make the 40's man~ana.

Otherwise, another simple day; a little correspondence, feedin' ponies, a little firewood, and a wee nap. Day's are still fair short and I believe the cold of the past few weeks, kinda took some a my starch out; soon as it eases up a bit, the eyelids do get heavy.

But, I did notice that we didn't get dark, dark 'till almost 6 o'clock. Took a short hike down to the low gate, check the lock and stretch my legs and pretty much the whole sky was one big rainbow, as it has a habit this time a year. Kinda dusty rose, over to the east, above the divide, then changin' to a deep sky blue, then a pale grey blue, over head, then startin' to take on a hint of gold, as it comes down toward the west, endin' up some other wordly mix of silver orange and red.

Whichy gets all excited, soon as we head for the gate; the rabbits run hither and yon, as we poke down the road and she does her best ta give 'em a scare, makin' sure ta check the two or three culverts, 'tween here and there. Wedo, I don't know if it's the road or the trucks, maybe the depth of the snow, but he just sits down, when we head for the gate, waits for us ta get back, then makes up for the pause, zoomin' around like we're gone for a month, but, my guess, this time next year, he'll be a whole different dog. I think when the snows gone and it's easier get around, his attitude'll loosen up quite some.

Have a nice night,

Best, Always

  1. Beautiful sky. Close my eyes, let the colors you describe dance around.... very different from an ocean sky at the end of the day.... and something I'd like to see someday. There's just something so awesome about how nature colors the sky in different weather, seasons, time of day.

    Wedo's antics are really sweet. If he misses you, then there's already a bond there. "Zoomin' like we're gone for a month," - sound like happy to me.

  2. What an inspiring painting. Beautiful country.

    Wedo loves his home ... and is even happier when you and Whichy come back. The dance of love. Smiling. :)

    Julio looks handsome and healthy ... sun just makes him shine.

    Blessings,
    Peaceful
