Idyllic Place
Richard Green – LinkedIn
I feel an especially strong pull toward wherever this idyllic place is because it’s yucky outside here in Greenwood, Arkansas today. It’s cold and rainy. Forecasted for us for the weekend is a ‘wintry mix.” I think I’ve told you before that Arkansas does not do winter well.
I wouldn’t mind if it just turned cold and snowed. We always do ICE first – sometimes really causing almost un-repairable damage – and THEN we might get some snow over it.
In 2001 we got a ‘wintry mix’ that resulted in our being captive in our house, unable to get down our 650+ foot steep driveway until we chain-sawed the trees. That took us three days of really long, hard, cold work. The tree branches were snapping off as we stood on the porch. I still cringe when I hear that awful sound. We have what we call ‘trash trees’ rather than majestic or beautiful ones, but I love them all and it broke my heart when we lost so many.
So as I gaze wistfully at this gorgeous photo by Richard Green, I wish I could escape there and spend the day, at least.
Our worst day is supposed to be Saturday, when we have a 100% chance of rain/sleet/snow and flying hairballs, according to the weather channel. I just have all appendages crossed that whatever happens will be clear for Monday, when we pick up our son at the airport for a much-anticipated visit from Thailand.

“Seagulls” – Paul Militaru Photography
A “colony” of seagulls. A “flock” or “brace” of ducks. Whatever you call them, I LOVE seeing groups of birds doing anything. Somehow just seeing them makes my heart soar.

“Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain?”
I hope Willie Nelson won’t mind me using his words, but these photos just cried out to be shown together.

Elephants!
Jeff Jett – LinkedIn
My mother LOVED baby animals. Her heart would simply melt and she wanted each one she saw. She oohed and ahhed over a baby monkey she saw on TV one day. The next day my dad showed up with a baby monkey in a cage he had bought at a pet shop. We lived with the monkey for a couple of weeks – a really hairy experience. He didn’t like any of us. He DID like grapes, however, and we would give him grapes one at a time. He would take it, pop it in his mouth, and then spit the grape peel out of the cage. One day he got out of his cage. He ran into the kitchen where my mom was soaking a head of lettuce. He picked it up and ran all over the house with it – up the draperies and down in the living room, water streaming all over the carpet and furniture, my mother shrieking for my dad to “DO SOMETHING, JIM!!!” He chased it down with a towel and finally caught him. I remember seeing the monkey’s teeth coming through the towel. The monkey went back to the pet shop that day.
When my mom saw a baby elephant on TV some time later, she oohed and ahhed, and then looked at my dad and said, “BUT I DON’T WANT ONE!”

A Sight for Sore Eyes
Alhena Max Photos – Max Blanchard – LinkedIn
I love the fall season when the temperatures finally quit slapping you in the face when you walk outside. I love sweaters, vests, snuggly clothes, fires in the fireplaces, etc. But my heart really soars in spring and summer when the world is full of gorgeous color and blooms.

Particularly now, when the thing I’m doing outside lately is cutting back dead stuff from the recent freezes, beautiful photography like this reminds me that after winter breathes its last, glorious spring will bring new shoots of green!
