picture maker...









These pics are from a gorgeous view that is above and behind my home. Up on a seasonal dirt road that has the most breathtaking views. I think you can see 3 separate towns from up on that hill. I have been in awe of late, of the beauty that is out there in the rural countryside where I live. It amazes me how Mother Nature creates these painted pictures with the most beautiful and sublime of greens, blues and greys. I noticed on a long drive yesterday, how Mother Nature's 'uncultivated' landscapes are just so stunning. I was noticing things I have never noticed before. For example: the way beautiful vines automatically grow along roadside fences. They go on for miles. They look intentional, but they're not. I love lines and rows of trees that are also not intentional, but appear as though they are. I have always loved nature and the great outdoors, but somehow I feel a new heightened sense of awe that I had not recalled having before. And don't even get me started on my love of wildflowers! ahhh...

I am amazed at her beauty.
