Looking at the Sky on Friday

Before the idiots put the 12 ft. block wall behind us, this was our view. (I must confess that I did some "doctoring," and, if I've used this photo before - please forgive me! I'm getting senile...)

Be certain to give our Hostess a shout-out!

A very short post to let you know I've got the sinus monster. I'm taking off a couple of days...please forgive me if I don't swing by your way.

Looking at the Sky on Friday

This is another view of the Kern River as it flows through Kernville (aptly named!).

Manic Monday - Warm

There are so many definitions for "warm." Well, I get all warm and fuzzy inside when I think of warm cinnamon rolls. Actually, that includes most pastries!
Miss Bee loves cake and, while I admit cake is one of the seven wonders of the world, pastries are my downfall. When I was little, we often ate at a French restaurant in L.A. The first time the waiter brought out that darned pastry cart with all of those tempting delights I was hooked.

Are you cold? Stop by Mo's Manic Monday Meme and warm up!

Looking at the Sky on Friday...

Yes, I know. This is a cemetery and not an old one like Linda takes pictures in! It's just down the road from us and it's on a hill. When the sky is active I love to run up there because the view is tremendous. If you look real hard, almost dead-center, are the three crosses used for Easter Sunrise services.

Wordless Wednesday - Lowland Gorilla

The eyes of a dominant male western lowland gorilla stare at a visitor at the primate sanctuary run by the Cameroon Wildlife Aid Fund in Mefou National Park, just outside the capital Yaounde, March 21, 2009. The United Nations has designated 2009 as the year of the gorilla and has launched efforts across Africa to preserve the endangered species found in central African nations including Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda. (REUTERS/Finbarr O'Reilly) This is one thing the UN did right...we cannot allow these guys to disappear from the earth. (I know this is supposed to be "wordless" but I felt this was important)

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Manic Monday - Plant

I have a very rare "dove plant" in my backyard. Mama Dove tried to nest in my Rabbit's Foot Fern, but I have nursed that plant through thick and thin so I fixed it so the doves can't move in. They settled on an asparagus fern that I don't mind sacrificing. The last brood have flown away but we still see them in the backyard, learning to do what birds do...smiles.
